What are hardware or software requirements to operate MedDRA?
MedDRA does not have any specific hardware or software requirements. It does not require any particular operating system or version of an operating system. The terminology is delivered as a set of ASCII text files. The documentation accompanying the terminology is in .pdf format and describes the relationships between the files, which can then be used to load the files into a database or software application. The MedDRA text files can be loaded into all of the commonly used database management systems (e.g., MS Access ,, MS SQL Server , Oracle). All software applications commonly used in the pharmaceutical industry can either load MedDRA directly or through a load utility.
