These are prescription drugs? If so, I'm sure said people will trust
their doctors and the labels on their drugs and the inserts which
come with the drugs far more than an online encyclopedia. Perhaps
they will call their doctor and say, "I read that the usual dosage
was much higher/lower, what gives?" And their doctor will tell them
the information was wrong. Even if they trusted the information,
that's no reason to act on it.

My general experience based on how people react to information about
"alt med" on the net suggest that there are a fair number of people
who will not trust their doctors or even consult them.
