FDA Get Drug Label Info By Field Value

Overview

Retrieve FDA drug label information by searching a specific FDA drug label field for a given value (field:value). This is a generic field-based lookup. Use `return_fields` to choose which sections/fields to return, or pass "ALL" to return full label records. Note: for `openfda.generic_name`, values are typically uppercase (e.g., "ASPIRIN"). Allowed fields (use these for both `field` and `return_fields`): abuse, accessories, active_ingredient, adverse_reactions, alarms, animal_pharmacology_and_or_toxicology, ask_doctor, ask_doctor_or_pharmacist, assembly_or_installation_instructions, boxed_warning, calibration_instructions, carcinogenesis_and_mutagenesis_and_impairment_of_fertility, cleaning, clinical_pharmacology, clinical_studies, compatible_accessories, components, contraindications, controlled_substance, dependence, description, diagram_of_device, disposal_and_waste_handling, do_not_use, dosage_and_administration, dosage_forms_and_strengths, drug_abuse_and_dependence, drug_and_or_laboratory_test_interactions, drug_interactions, effective_time, environmental_warning, food_safety_warning, general_precautions, geriatric_use, guaranteed_analysis_of_feed, health_care_provider_letter, health_claim, how_supplied, id, inactive_ingredient, indications_and_usage, information_for_owners_or_caregivers, information_for_patients, instructions_for_use, intended_use_of_the_device, keep_out_of_reach_of_children, labor_and_delivery, laboratory_tests, mechanism_of_action, microbiology, nonclinical_toxicology, nonteratogenic_effects, nursing_mothers, openfda, openfda.brand_name, openfda.generic_name, other_safety_information, overdosage, package_label_principal_display_panel, patient_medication_information, pediatric_use, pharmacodynamics, pharmacogenomics, pharmacokinetics, precautions, pregnancy, pregnancy_or_breast_feeding, purpose, questions, recent_major_changes, references, residue_warning, risks, route, safe_handling_warning, set_id, spl_indexing_data_elements, spl_medguide, spl_patient_package_insert, spl_product_data_elements, spl_unclassified_section, statement_of_identity, stop_use, storage_and_handling, summary_of_safety_and_effectiveness, teratogenic_effects, troubleshooting, use_in_specific_populations, user_safety_warnings, version, warnings, warnings_and_cautions, when_using.
