02 / Our editorial approach
Traceable, restrained, and clear about limits.
We organize material around questions readers actually encounter: what a claim means, what it leaves out, and what kind of source can help verify it. When a source points to research, we favor direct literature and official material; the PubMed literature database is one established route for locating biomedical citations and their publication records.
We also distinguish general background from rules that depend on place and circumstance. For public health context, readers can consult the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, while this site keeps its own role limited to explanation, comparison, and transparent framing.
Information is reviewed for clarity, source fit, and whether its uncertainty is stated honestly. That approach applies equally when readers arrive through discussions of methadone-related treatment questions or broader international program comparisons such as options beyond Mexico.
