The National Library of Medicine recently released the NLM Drug Information Portal at http://druginfo.nlm.nih.gov/ . This tool 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.
