Drug Information

Drug info: recalls & side effects

Drug Information gives you authoritative FDA data on any medication โ€” what it treats, how to take it, what to watch out for, and whether it's ever been recalled. All data comes directly from official FDA databases.

This isn't a general health chatbot. It pulls real labeling data: indications, dosage instructions, contraindications, black box warnings, drug interaction flags, and adverse event reports from the FDA's FAERS system. It also surfaces recall history so you know if a product has had Class I safety issues.

What you can do

  • lookup_drug โ€” full FDA label by brand or generic name: indications, dosage, warnings, contraindications, interactions
  • check_adverse_events โ€” real-world side effect reports from the FDA adverse event database
  • check_recalls โ€” recall history for a drug including severity class
  • search_by_condition โ€” find drugs approved for a specific medical condition when you don't know the drug name

Who it's for

Patients researching their medications, healthcare professionals doing quick reference checks, researchers analyzing drug safety data, and journalists or analysts investigating pharmaceutical recalls.

How to use it

  1. If you know the drug name, call lookup_drug directly โ€” pass the brand or generic name.
  2. If you only know the condition, use search_by_condition first to find relevant drugs.
  3. Follow up with check_adverse_events to see real-world reported side effects.
  4. Use check_recalls to verify no safety recalls are on record.

Getting started

Call lookup_drug with a drug name. All responses include the FDA disclaimer โ€” always present this to users.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I search by condition if I do not know the drug name?

Yes. `search_by_condition` is the best starting point when you only know the symptom or medical condition and want to see which drugs are commonly used for it.

What is the difference between the label and adverse event data?

The FDA label shows approved indications, dosage, warnings, contraindications, and interactions. The adverse event report tool shows reported side effects, which are not the same as confirmed causality.

Does it tell me if a drug has been recalled?

Yes. `check_recalls` surfaces FDA recall history, including the recall class, status, and reason, so you can quickly check whether a product has a known enforcement issue.

Should I use this for medical advice?

No. It is a reference tool for FDA drug information, recalls, and adverse event reports. It is useful for research, but it does not replace a clinician.
