Wikipedia Is Top Source for Medical Information:
Where do people go most often on the Internet when they're looking for medical information? The answer is Wikipedia, the modern-day encyclopedia.

The global information and technology services company IMS Health says that both patients and health care professionals visited the top 100 Wikipedia pages related to medical matters 1.9 million times on average in just the last year.

In addition, there is a strong link between the number of page views and medicine use based on 50 major disease-specific Wikipedia articles. Interestingly, IMS Health found that younger people are more prone to consult Wikipedia health information prior to seeking treatment, which is the opposite of those 50 and older, the demographic that uses health care services more than any other age group.
