~Subreddit Rules~

Rules will be enforced by the mods through warnings, post/comment removal, and, in the most extreme cases, banning.

General Guidelines

• This is not the place to debate the merits of alternative medicine or conspiracy theories.

• Be civil and try to be nice. No racism, sexism, homophobia, etc. Repeat offenders may be banned.

• Follow Reddit’s site-wide rules.

Submission Guidelines

• Submissions should refer to some problem associated with the pharmaceutical or healthcare industry.

• Both articles and self-posts are welcome.

• Avoid submitting articles from sources listed on Quackwatch’s Nonrecommended Periodicals (such as anything from Natural News, InfoWars or Mercola.com).

• Article headlines: You may alter the original headline, but it should accurately reflect the content of the article posted.

• Memes and image macros are not allowed. Avoid blogspam and spammy sites.

The inspiration for the name of the subreddit comes from Ben Goldacre's book, Bad Pharma.
