i was thinking of making a game, with specific references to different in-real-life medication. It is supposed to be a fun, but also an informative game about the pharmaceutical and biomedical area.
I’d like to know if something like this is prohibited on roblox, or if it should only be a 17+ game. Again, its for learning purpose. I’d understand if heavy medication such as narcotics are prohibited, so I wouldn’t bother asking about it. Thanks for the feedback

lets say simvastatin, paracetamol, bisoprolol, enalapril, lorsatine, such medicines
I have seen Roblox take down games for even a slight mention of an alcoholic beverage being in the game so I wouldn’t risk it… the Roblox moderation is mostly of AI so it can be taken down purely because of being medical without even mentioning many of the prohibited medicines
even if you do get reviewed by actual human moderators it would still probably be taken out by AI
Yeahhhhhh… wouldn’t risk it, although maybe made-up names could work? In general medication doesn’t seem to be an issue, many games use bandages, adrenaline shots, medkits, etc.

DO NOT DO IT, YOU WILL BE BANNED. Anything medical related is basically bannable on Roblox.
would i be able to make a replica of real life medicine without it being taken down? lets say a heartrythm potion called something like ”heartelio” or whatever, with specified dosage and amount?
If you look at decaying winter, they have so many things that i believe roblox would take down, but havent (unless i know of, i think the game was taken down for something, but i brlieve it was smoking?) They have needles for buffing and medications in the form of pills. Im not sure if the game just hasnt gotten around to moderation or something like that, or it may just be a 13+ setting as i believe thats where the game stands
It would fall under the 17+ category.
" 17+ experiences on Roblox may include references to, and depictions of, alcohol use and intoxicated behavior. However, we prohibit users from discussing, depicting, or promoting illegal and some regulated goods, including:
- Illegal and regulated drugs, including marijuana and the misuse of prescription or over-the-counter drugs, and the depiction of intoxication as a result of these substances

- Dietary supplements and enhancers such as weight loss pills and steroids"
(From Roblox TOS)
No, probably not if they make it 17+
