On Tuesday, July 12th, 2016, the MedlinePlus team will update the domain to “medlineplus.gov” for all page URLs on the English and Spanish MedlinePlus sites, including health topic pages, drug monographs and encyclopedia articles.

For example, the URL for the English health topic page “Asthma” will change from

https://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/asthma.html

to

https://medlineplus.gov/asthma.html

 

The URL for the Spanish health topic page “Asthma” will change from

https://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/spanish/asthma.html

to

https://medlineplus.gov/spanish/asthma.html

The old URLs will automatically redirect to the new URLs for the foreseeable future. However, we suggest updating your pages to point to medlineplus.gov and medlineplus.gov/spanish concurrent with this update.

This update does not change the site contents or design.
