More about medical disclaimers

This disclaimer may be suitable for use on websites that supply free medical information – for example, information about injuries, diseases, pharmaceuticals, therapies, medical devices or health products.

The disclaimer provides that such medical information is merely information – not advice. If users need medical advice, they should consult a doctor or other appropriate medical professional. The disclaimer also provides that no warranties are given in relation to the medical information supplied on the website, and that no liability will accrue to the website owner in the event that a user suffers loss as a result of reliance upon the information.

Of course, this kind of liability disclaimer will not always be enforceable. The courts regularly rule that limitations and exclusions of liability are ineffective (on various grounds). You should take advice from your lawyer if you may wish to rely upon a disclaimer of liability.

The disclaimer may be used on its own or used as part of another legal document.

The contents of this medical advice disclaimer are as follows: (1) no medical advice; (2) professional medical advice; (3) no warranties; (4) limitation of liability; (5) exceptions; (6) medical emergencies; (7) third-party content; (8) changes to this disclaimer; and (9) contact us.

Frequently asked questions

If your website publishes information about health, medical conditions, treatments, or wellness topics, a medical disclaimer is strongly recommended. It clarifies that the content is for informational purposes only and does not constitute professional medical advice, helping to limit your liability if a reader acts on the information.
No. A medical disclaimer cannot exclude liability for negligence causing personal injury or death, and courts may scrutinise disclaimers that attempt to exclude liability in unreasonable circumstances. A disclaimer is an important safeguard, but it should be complemented by accurate, well-researched content and clear signposting to seek professional advice.
A medical disclaimer specifically addresses health and medical content, making clear that information should not replace professional medical advice. A general legal disclaimer covers broader website content. If your website includes medical information alongside other content, you may benefit from having both.
