From what sources does Epocrates develop its clinical drug content?
The Epocrates Rx and Epocrates Online drug database is a proprietary database developed by our editorial team of pharmacists and physicians from academic backgrounds and institutions. To provide our customers with the most accurate, comprehensive, and clinically relevant drug information, these editors review information sources ranging from product labeling (package inserts) and the FDA to standard medical and pharmacotherapy texts, specialty references, clinical guidelines and consensus documents, high-quality review articles, and primary literature. We also maintain a board of clinical practitioners whom the medical editors may consult regarding specific clinical practices or controversies.
