Monday, March 3, 2008 The WHO Drug Dictionary Browser - new version The WHO Drug Dictionary Browser was introduced in 2006. This tool made it possible to access the latest version of the WHO Drug Dictionaries over the internet – with a number of useful search features. The search features in the browser were designed to facilitate both simple searches and more advanced analysis. The advanced features are sometimes necessary when a trade name appears more than once in the dictionary, with different active ingredients.
In June 2008 a new version of the browser will be made available. Some new features have been added to the search module, and it is now possible to access the latest version of the dictionary as well as old versions – this is sometimes necessary in clinical trials.
