The major problem with this that I've experienced is even if I use operands like + and - to specify or remove terms--more often remove--Google ends up using a synonym in place of that word that means the same thing.
So if for instance I'm looking up info about ADHD meds as an adult, I might get tons of articles about childhood ADHD since that's where all the research is. I search Adult ADHD meds, I still get articles about childhood ADHD. So then I:
-child -childhood -adolescent -teen -kid -momgroup -mother -parent -teenager -children -kids -school -offspring -smallhumans -minor -underage +adult +work -rehab -addiction
and I still get crap blog spam that's probably related to teaching or raising children or some other bullshit like warning about the dangers of addiction or something, and never information about my ADHD or the meds for it.
It's not GREAT is the understatement of the decade.
