The UpToDate suite of solutions

UpToDate® Lexidrug™, formerly Lexicomp, will continue to deliver the referential drug content you trust to make the best possible evidence-based medication decisions.

 

 

 

 

Tips and tricks: International Brand Names

To help make it easier to verify medicines, accurately prescribe them, and improve patient safety, Lexidrug includes more than 500,000 international brand names from 150+ countries to its extensive international drug brand name database. An enhanced search functionality is available within the Brand Names: International field in Lexidrug monographs for easy access to the expanded list of international brand names.

 

 

 

 

Internet Explorer 11 (IE11) retirement reminder

We will be making security enhancements to UpToDate® Lexidrug™ platforms consistent with the changes Microsoft has made to discontinue support of IE11.


As of June 20, 2024, we have ended support of IE11 for Lexidrug. To ensure an optimal user experience, please transition to using a supported browser, including the latest versions of Edge, Chrome, Firefox, and Safari.


Please contact your IT department if you need help with the transition to a new browser.
