Mediscript books available on this site are written by medical writers in consultation with physicians. Many of the books have been available for several years and have been validated by various legal, medical and technical departments of major health care manufacturing companies who have used the books as educational resources for the health care professional clients.

The information has been derived from standard scientific, clinical and medical articles and books and only “mainstream” medical , usually generic information is used to ensure no incorrect, controversial or dangerous information is included in the material.

Further this website has worked in harmony with the authoritative allergy and asthma associations in maintaining current and compatible information and members of the editorial board attend these associations annual conferences each year to ensure relevant current information and developments are included within this website.

For a full review of the sources of information see the following lists of associations’ websites and bibliography.  

All the books are registered with library of congress and all the books have ISBN, International Standard Book Numbers, registered with each book
