Welcome to Just the Inserts

We are your trusted ally on the journey toward making confident and knowledgeable decisions for your family’s health and well-being.

Just the Inserts provides well-researched training and resources to help patients and parents understand what manufacturers say about their medical products.

We invite you to explore everything from our deep-dive inserts and books to our pro-informed consent provider directory and shop. 

As passionate advocates of informed consent, we believe you—and you alone—have the right to make informed medical decisions. 

We are wholeheartedly committed to providing clear, straightforward information to help you make informed decisions.

Transparency

Our Core Values

We believe in autonomy in making medical decisions, including a full understanding of the risks and benefits involved.

Responsibility

We provide a variety of freely accessible resources to ensure you are empowered to make the best decisions for your family.

Accessibility

We emphasize the importance of independence from groupthink, encouraging critical thinking and informed choices.

Independence

read full bio

Just the Inserts was created from the cry of a mother. When my first child was injured by a pharmaceutical product, I felt the weight of responsibility to make the right decision for her health and well-being.

Frustrated by the lack of straightforward information, I created Just the Inserts to fill the gaps to support others on a similar path. Like you, I’m not a medical professional, but thankfully, we don’t need to be in our pursuit of gaining informed consent.

As Just the Inserts grows, I hope to make medical information more accessible to everyone—no matter their background.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How does Just the Inserts differ from other sources?

Just the Inserts focuses on presenting .gov information in an easily understandable way while encouraging you to make the best medical decision for you. We act as a supportive guide through complex medical information found on the CDC, FDA, NIH, and other government resources.

Q: What is informed consent, and how does it apply to drug or vaccine decisions?

Informed consent means having full access to all relevant information before making key health decisions. Just the Inserts emphasizes understanding inserts to facilitate genuine informed consent.

Q: How do I access insert information on Just the Inserts?

We have a search portal to locate inserts that explore various medications and vaccines. You can search by product name to view details about ingredients, risks, possible side effects, and much more.

Q: What’s the best way to understand an insert?

Inserts can be confusing the first time you read them. We offer a free training course that walks you step-by-step through how to find and read manufacturer inserts. If you'd like a more in-depth guide, read our book, Well-Considered: A Handbook for Making Informed Medical Decisions.

Q: What sources does Just the Inserts use for its information?

About 99.9% of the resources are pulled from .gov websites. However, 100% of the resources are cited for you to verify yourself. The goal is never to replace your research but to streamline it.

Q: Is Just the Inserts’ information suitable for medical decisions?

While we provide comprehensive resources to help you reach informed consent, we recommend consulting healthcare professionals for personal health decisions.

Q: What alternatives exist if I choose not to use a pharmaceutical product?

Despite the name, Just the Inserts also provides information on alternatives, particularly for individuals seeking options beyond traditional pharmaceuticals. As an advocate for informed consent, Just the Inserts desires to also provide resources for patients or parents who delay or decline pharmaceutical products.

You Deserve More Than Just Information. You Deserve Support

For years, we've offered tools and resources to help you make informed medical decisions. But we’ve come to realize: information alone isn’t enough.

What so many of us are craving is a space where we don’t have to explain, dilute, or defend our convictions. We crave a space where we’re supported while navigating it all.

That’s why we created this private community.

It’s not a place to defend or to persuade. It’s a protected space to connect with others who are walking similar paths, holding the same questions, and choosing what’s best for their families even when it’s hard or misunderstood.

This is where you’ll find the calm confidence and solidarity you’ve been craving.
