MeDB: A Searchable Register for Drug Registrations
MeDB combines live United States and Canadian drug-registration data in one searchable register, with provenance and freshness attached to each record.
Field notes
The register currently combines 115,496 United States records with 58,213 Canadian records and reports coverage of roughly 140,000 products. MeDB says each record retains source provenance and a freshness stamp, while five separate absence states prevent a missing result from being read automatically as non-approval. The product also describes watch lists for registration changes and patent-expiry windows; expansion beyond the two live markets is presented as a plan for 30-plus countries.
