NLM Drug Information Portal
The National Library of Medicine has released the NLM Drug Information Portal. This resource provides the public, healthcare professionals, and researchers with a gateway to current and accurate drug information from the National Library of Medicine and to other key government agencies.
The Drug Information Portal offers a varied selection of resources and focused topics in medicine and drug-related information, with links to individual resources with drug information and summaries tailored to various audiences. General drug categories from MeSH are also included in the Drug Portal records.
More than 15,000 drugs are available for searching. The search interface requires only a drug name; a spellchecker is provided. Information buttons and balloon pop-ups guide the user by providing helpful hints or a description of the resource and links to the source website.
Search results include links to related drug information in MedlinePlus(r), AIDSinfo(r), Medline/PubMed(r), LactMed, HSDB(r), Dietary Supplements Labels Database, TOXLINE(r), DailyMed(r), ClinicalTrials.gov, PubChem, NIAID Anti-HIV/OI Database, ChemIDplus(r), Drugs@FDA, DEA, and USA.gov.
