Reads the FDA shortage entry, finds alternative labelers and presentations, checks recalls at the affected manufacturer, compares the EU shortage picture and lists clinical trials that depend on the drug.6 toolsOpen
Uses WHO Global Health Observatory, European Medicines Agency, FDA, ClinicalTrials.govEx-US launch market screenUse when a pharma or medtech market-access team is ranking countries for launch after US approval. Pulls WHO disease burden for the indication by country, checks which competitors already hold EU authorisation and US approval, and counts competing trials recruiting in each country, then ranks markets by burden, competition and trial crowding.5 toolsOpen
Uses FDA, European Medicines AgencyGeneric drug supply opportunity scanUse when a generics manufacturer, CDMO or pharma business-development lead is looking for molecules worth entering because supply is fragile. Lines up US and EU shortages for the same ingredient, counts how many labelers and approved applications remain, checks recent quality recalls, and ranks the molecules with the fewest reliable makers.6 toolsOpen
Uses FDA, PubMed and PMC, European Medicines Agency, ClinicalTrials.govPost-marketing safety signal triageUse when a pharmacovigilance lead, medical affairs team or health journalist sees a possible new side effect for a marketed drug. Compares FAERS reaction reports against the current label, checks for published case reports, the EU regulatory status and ongoing trials, and returns a signal triage table with what is labelled, what is new and how strong the evidence is.6 toolsOpen
Uses FDA, PubMed and PMC, ClinicalTrials.gov, European Medicines AgencyAdverse event signal triage for a marketed drugUse when a pharmacovigilance scientist, medical affairs lead or hospital pharmacist sees a possible new safety signal for a marketed drug. Counts FAERS reports for the drug and reaction, checks whether the label already lists it, looks for published case reports and dedicated safety trials, and checks the EU regulatory picture, then rates the signal.6 toolsOpen
