Querying OpenFDA Labels
Looks up FDA drug labels, NDC directory entries, indications, boxed warnings, and recalls/enforcement actions via the free public OpenFDA API to enrich drugs that OpenMed extracts. Use when the user wants the prescribing information for a drug, its boxed warning, approved indications, dosage forms and routes, package NDC codes, RxCUI, or whether a product has an open recall. Trigger keywords: OpenFDA, drug label, SPL, prescribing information, boxed warning, black box warning, indications, NDC, package code, recall, enforcement, Class I recall, drug enrichment. Pairs adjacent to OpenMed NER: take a drug name (or RxNorm RxCUI) from openmed.analyze_text and resolve its label, NDC, and recall status. OpenFDA is public and free — no license barrier; send only de-identified drug names, never raw clinical notes.
