Research & AcademiaMisc References

Look up any FDA drug label from a workflow, straight from the National Library of Medicine. Search over 159,000 labels by drug name, manufacturer, National Drug Code, RxNorm code, ingredient, drug class, controlled substance schedule or publication date, then read the label itself as plain text: the boxed warning, what the medicine treats, how to take it, the warnings, the side effects and the interactions. Get a medicine's package codes, its strengths and pack sizes, its carton and tablet photographs, and every version of its label with the date each was published, so a scheduled workflow can notice the moment a label changes. Prescription, over-the-counter, animal and vaccine labels are all covered. Every action reads: nothing here changes anything. No account or API key required.

Steps your workflow can run in DailyMed.

Search drug labelsFind FDA drug labels by any combination of a drug name, the company on the label, a National Drug Code, an RxNorm code, an ingredient, a pharmacologic class, a controlled substance schedule, whether the medicine carries a boxed warning, how it was approved, and when the label was published. Every result comes back with the Set ID the other actions read, the publication date as a real date, and links to the label's page, its PDF and its archive. Searching by publication date is what a scheduled workflow watching for new or revised labels runs on.

Read a drug labelRead the words of a drug's FDA label: the boxed warning, what it treats, how to take it, who must not take it, the warnings, the side effects, the interactions, the overdose advice and the rest, as plain text a summarizing or drafting step can use directly. Narrow it to the sections you want, or take the whole label. Ask by drug name or by Set ID. The boxed warning also comes back on its own, so a safety check is one step and one field.

List a label's versionsList every version of one drug's label, with the date each was published and a download of that exact version. This is how a workflow notices that a label has been revised: the result says how many days ago the last change was, so a scheduled step can act when that number resets. Older versions are kept permanently, so a label from a decade ago is still downloadable.

List a label's picturesList the pictures published with a drug's label: the carton and bottle artwork, the tablet itself, and any diagrams the label carries. Each comes back as a direct image address, ready to put in a message, a page or a document without downloading anything first.

List a label's NDC codesList every National Drug Code on one drug's label, one per package size. These are the codes a pharmacy system, an inventory record, an insurance claim and a barcode all use, so this is the step that turns a drug name into the codes another system will recognise.

Get a label's packaging and ingredientsGet every product on one drug's label with its active ingredients, its strength, and the package sizes it is sold in with the code for each. A medicine sold in four strengths is four products here, each with its own codes, which is what a formulary, a stock list or a price file needs. The strengths are read from the label document, because DailyMed's packaging data repeats every strength on the label under every product.

Find drug namesFind the drug names DailyMed holds, brand and generic, and which kind each one is. Use it to check a spelling before searching, to turn a brand into its generic, or to list everything one company sells. Labels spell names their own way, so this is the step that turns what somebody typed into something that will find labels.

Find drug classesBrowse the pharmacologic classes DailyMed files labels under: what a medicine is, how it works, what it does to the body, and what it is made of. Search by class name, or give an ingredient's code to get every class that ingredient belongs to. A class name from here goes straight into the drug class field on 'Search drug labels'.

Find active ingredientsFind an active ingredient and the FDA's own code for it. That code is what finds every product containing the ingredient, combination products included, which a search by drug name misses: searching 'ibuprofen' by name finds the ibuprofen products, while searching by its ingredient code finds the cold-and-flu remedies containing it too.

Find RxNorm codesFind the RxNorm code for a medicine, which is the identifier electronic health records and prescribing systems use. Search by how the medicine is written, or give a code to see every name it goes by. This is the bridge between a prescription in another system and the label here: take the code from a record, and 'Search drug labels' finds every label it belongs to.
