About MedlinePlus

MedlinePlus has no official status feed we can read, so this page relies on our own checks and user reports.

Measured uptime from our checks: 100% over 1 day of checks. No public incidents logged since monitoring began 1 day ago.

Response time over the last 24 hours: 493 ms average, 18–2281 ms range across 60 successful checks.

MedlinePlus not working for me but the status is fine. What now?

It is usually local: try another browser or the app, switch between Wi-Fi and mobile data, and clear the cache. For health services, watch for patient portal and member sign-in failures, prescription refills or appointment booking not going through, and app errors. If many people report MedlinePlus here at once, the problem is on MedlinePlus's side.
