Born in May 2026, Pharmacopedia started primarily as a one-man project of [https://markelliottmd.com MDElliottMD], who'd been dreaming of some place for the people who recommend and/or take medicines of the mind might collaborate to create consensus-driven information, founded in a deep faith in the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wisdom_of_the_crowd wisdom of the crowd].

I hope that this place can be a lively, collaborative, place for communal effort in understanding the bizarre world of drugs and human brains. I hope that by pooling our collective anecdotes, we might actually make some data, of a sort.
First, I hope this to be a reasonable and reliable reference for prescribers of all sorts to find relevant and accurate information for their practice: available strengths, titration strategies, pill IDs, etc.


For now, I, [[User:MDElliott]], am the only person who can finalize page edits, though I hope to have a team of moderators some day.
But almost moreso, I hope that this place can be a lively, collaborative space for a communal effort in understanding the bizarre world of using medicines to help alleviate suffering. I hope that by pooling our collective anecdotes.. our stories, that we might actually make some data.. of a sort.  


This project is not, in an way, driven by money or profit. The link above is as far as I will go to promote myself or my brand here. At the moment, I am happy to fund the project in its entirety. If that changes, I may some day ask for donations.  
The site empowers users (with 2-FA) to share their experience about almost every aspect of the site, in as fine a detail as I thought was tolerable. And now finally a place for [[MyProfileIntro|our stories]], in more exquisite detail than ever before. I hope that by pooling our experiences en masse, we might find something like truth.  


This project was entirely developed and partially populated by Claude (Opal 4.7), and is based on the [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki Mediawiki code base], bless their souls.
For now, I, [[User:MDElliottMD|MDElliottMD]], am the only person who can approve/publish page edits, though I hope to have a team of moderators some day. I am also the only person currently able to access private user data. I am frankly [https://markelliottmd.com/privacy.html obsessed with privacy] and will do everything in my power to keep these data private. If any security nerds want to help me achieve that goal, [https://markelliottmd.com/contact.html please lmk].  


Much of the interface (voting, especially) here is run through an extension that I made with Claude: Pharmacopedia.ext, which I'm happy to share with whomever wants it. Probably easiest to get ahold of me through my website above.
I am not a software developer, nor a designer, but I am a top-tier expert in meds of the mind. I will keep the place as tidy as I can.


Thanks for coming by. Would be honored if you could help inform the hive mind.
This project is not, in an way, driven by money or profit. The links above are as far as I will go to promote myself or my brand here. At the moment, I am happy to fund the project in its entirety (maybe $400/year at time of writing may 2026). If that changes, I may some day ask for donations.
 
To be explicit up front so I look foolish if I change my mind later:
 
1) I will never serve any sort of ad for anything other than this website itself or directly related content. no ads ever.
2) I will never make this a pay to play platform in any way. no hidden costs. no subscriptions. ever.
3) I will guard these precious data from any and all others, including any who would wish to buy them. I will never. ever. sell these data to anyone for any reason.
 
Aggregated data are ripe for analyzin’. Anything attributable to any individual will remain private to the best of my ability in perpetuity.
 
Pinky swear.
 
This project was entirely developed and partially populated by Claude (Opal 4.7 at initial build), and is based on the [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/MediaWiki Mediawiki code base], bless their souls. Know that any content not explicitly verified has some risk of AK slop. this will be fixed soon.
 
Most of the interface here is run through an extension that I made with Claude: [[About:Pharmacopedia.ext|Pharmacopedia.ext]], which I'm happy to share with whomever wants it. will post to Git once it’s a bit more mature. Probably easiest to get ahold of me through my website above.
 
Thanks for coming by. Would be honored if you could join the hive mind and share your stories.
