Databases: Patient Drug Information Available from PubMed

Starting October 12, 2007, some PubMed users will see links to a drug information resource on over two million citations….MedMaster drug information includes brand names and helpful information about the drug. Of the over two million citations with “Patient Drug Information” links, 95% display three or fewer links. Those that have more than three “Patient Drug Information” links will show three links and also have a link that reads “See all # Drug Reports,” which will take you to a Bookshelf page with all the links to drug information that can be explored.
