MedData
API

Drug and supplement information, served clean.

The problem

The FDA publishes detailed drug data through four separate systems: openFDA for adverse events, DailyMed for labels, the Orange Book for generic equivalence, and RxNorm for naming.

The data is comprehensive. Querying it requires understanding four different schemas, four sets of conventions, and four kinds of edge cases.

What MedData is

A single, developer-friendly API that brings these sources together. Built for healthtech, telehealth, pharmacy, and wellness applications that need clean drug data without the data-engineering overhead.

Query capabilities

→ Drug profiles by name, RxCUI, or NDC code
→ Active ingredients, dosage forms, and FDA approval status
→ Drug interactions with severity ratings
→ Generic alternatives and equivalence data
→ Average retail pricing (sourced from NADAC, a public CMS dataset)
→ Supplement information for common compounds
