Low-quality journal

In the light of the publication of fringe theories related to Ivermectin and the harbouring of discredited papers, I propose to change the first sentence:

Old: The American Journal of Therapeutics is a bimonthly peer-reviewed medical journal covering pharmacology and therapeutics.

Proposed: The American Journal of Therapeutics is a bimonthly peer-reviewed low-quality medical journal covering pharmacology and therapeutics well-regarded for its coverage of fringe medicine.

Were we to leave the text as it is, readers may get the false impression that the journal is reliable.
