About DutyPills.com
DutyPills.com is a multilingual reference for prescription medications, active pharmaceutical ingredients and therapeutic categories. We help readers understand how the medicines they have been prescribed work, what to expect from them, and where they fit within the broader treatment landscape — without medical jargon and without promotional language.
What we cover
The catalogue is curated for breadth across the most-prescribed therapeutic areas and the long-tail of practical questions readers actually search for.
- 108 medications, indexed by brand and active ingredient
- 91 active pharmaceutical ingredients with mechanism, pharmacokinetics and safety notes
- 19 therapeutic categories, from cardiovascular and diabetes to allergy and women's health
- 17 country regulatory profiles for prescription, pharmacy and online access patterns
- 76 long-tail topic guides per medication — side effects, dosage, breastfeeding, drug tests, withdrawal, sun sensitivity, CBD interactions and more
- Five languages: English, Spanish, German, Korean and Japanese, each written from scratch rather than machine-translated
Editorial approach
All articles are written under a single editorial standard inspired by reference works such as Drugs.com and Wikipedia: neutral, factual and explicit about uncertainty. Sources include the prescribing information published by national regulators (FDA, EMA, MHRA, BfArM, AEMPS, PMDA, MFDS), published clinical guidelines, and established pharmacology databases (LactMed, PubChem). We do not use language such as "best", "guaranteed", "100% effective", "completely safe" or "without prescription" — and we do not make claims that a medication will cure a condition. When evidence is limited, the article says so.

Content is available in English, Spanish, German, Korean and Japanese. Country-specific guidance is provided for the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Spain, Mexico, Argentina, Colombia, Chile, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, France, Italy, Brazil, South Korea and Japan, each with the local regulator, prescription culture and online dispensing landscape.
