Where can I find drug information through the library?
I'm looking for information on prescription drugs, including generics, trade names, drug classes, patient handouts, and interactions.
Answer
Use 3 of the library's subject databases to find drug information:
5 Minute Consult
Click on Drugs in the blue header bar. This resource draws from Facts & Comparisons. It includes additional patient education materials and drug interactions.
AccessMedicine
Click on ...More in the top right-hand corner. In the drop-down menu, choose from the options under Drugs. These options include Generics, Trade Names, Drug Classes, and Patient Handouts.
UpToDate
For first-time users, create an account. Click Contents in the top left-hand corner. Click on Drug Information in the dropdown, or navigate to Drug Interactions in the top menu bar.
