Do not use this site to make decisions about medical care. It is a reference index of public regulatory data, not a clinical tool.

Public benefit and limitation of liability

This resource is provided to you free, as a public benefit.

It does not serve as medical advice, and by using this site you explicitly forfeit your right to sue, hold liable, or in any way blame, Jon "Mike" Schlottig, Leverage AI LLC, and any and all partners and subsidiaries, past present and future, as it relates to information and subsequent decisions made as a result of using this informational resource.

I built this site and unified these databases because I hate when companies obscure valuable and potentially life saving information like this, and thought: "I'm actually fully capable of changing this with a minimal amount of time and effort, I should probably quit complaining and just do it."

Not medical advice

OpenRx is provided for informational and research purposes only. It is not a substitute for the professional judgement of a physician, pharmacist, veterinarian or other qualified health professional. Nothing here establishes a professional relationship, and nothing here should be used to diagnose, treat, prevent or manage any condition in any human or animal.

Do not start, stop, change or combine any medication based on what you read here. Consult a qualified prescriber.

Not the official labelling

The prescribing information reproduced on this site is quoted from the Structured Product Labeling the manufacturer submitted to the FDA, as distributed through the openFDA labelling dataset. It is a snapshot: labels are revised, and the version shown may no longer be current. Some sections are truncated for display.

The manufacturer's current package insert, and the FDA's own labelling at DailyMed, are the authoritative documents. Where they disagree with this site, they control.

Not a safety ranking

Adverse event report counts are raw totals from a spontaneous reporting system. They do not demonstrate that a drug caused any event, and they are strongly influenced by how many people take a drug, how long it has been marketed and how much attention it receives. Listing a medication near the top of a report-count ordering is not a statement that it is dangerous. See the methodology.

No warranty

The data is assembled automatically from public sources. It may contain errors introduced by the source, by the transformation, or by name-based joins between datasets that do not share a common identifier — biologic and veterinary attributions in particular are approximate and labelled as such.

The site is provided “as is”, without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including as to accuracy, completeness, timeliness or fitness for a particular purpose. To the maximum extent permitted by law, no liability is accepted for any loss or damage arising from its use.

Reporting a problem

If you believe a medication is missing, mis-joined or mis-attributed, the source datasets linked from data sources are the place to verify first — this site does not add or alter clinical content. Adverse events in humans should be reported to the FDA through the MedWatch program; veterinary events through the manufacturer or the FDA Center for Veterinary Medicine.

Copyright and licensing

The underlying datasets are works of the United States federal government and are not subject to copyright protection in the United States. Attribution and licensing detail for each is listed on data sources. Third-party trademarks and brand names remain the property of their respective owners and are used here only to identify the products the FDA records describe.
