>National Institute of Health (NIH)

Most links are provided directly. However, if there is a condition or medication that you do not see on our site, go to National Library of Medicine/National Institute of Health (NIH). On the right-hand side of the NIH page is a box to conduct searches. Enter your query in the box and press enter. It is helpful to enter the first word in the condition, for example in the case of Marfan's Syndrome, enter Marfan and a list of resources will be shown that have information about that condition.

>Patient Education Professional Association Resources

The resources available by professional groups are listed in alphabetical order. You will sometimes see that there are repeat titles; this is because several professional societies have information on that topic. This list only contains information from professional associations that meet the minimum requirement for patient education information.
