Debuting in February, the National Library of Medicine’s Drug Information Portal offers more than 12,000 drug records for online searching by the public, healthcare professionals and researchers.
With a user-friendly search engine that requires only a drug name as a search term, and information buttons and balloon pop-ups as guides, the new portal provides clear descriptions of drugs and links to additional information about them, including their individual source Web sites.
Among other linked sources are: MedlinePlus, AIDSinfo, MEDLINE/PubMed, LactMed, Hazardous Substances Data Bank (HSDB), Dietary Supplements Labels Database, TOXLINE, DailyMed, ClinicalTrials.gov, PubChem, NIAID Anti-HIV/OI Database, ChemIDplus, Drugs@FDA, DEA and USA.gov. General drug categories from MeSH are also included.
