Begin by typing a trade or generic name for a medication in the search box, and click “Go.” Your results are links to the following  resources provided by the National Library of Medicine and National Institutes of Health:

  • Consumer health information from MedLinePlus
  • Label information (packet inserts) from DailyMed
  • References from scientific journals from PubMed
  • Chemical and toxicological information from ToxNet
  • and more!

    • NLM’s Drug Information Portal links you directly to the relevant portions of these websites.  The NLM Drug Information Portal makes it easier to gather information about medications from multiple sources
