About this dataset
This dataset provides an invaluable resource for any medical researcher, pharmaceutical company, or clinical drug researcher looking to gain a more comprehensive understanding of drug-indication associations. With over four-hundred-thousand records and daily updates, it contains essential information such as drug labels, their RXCUIs (RxNorm Clinical Unique Identifier), and UMLS/MONDO indications to help identify unique correlations between different drugs and indications. By using such data to better inform decision making during the development process of new medications, this dataset has the potential to not only save time but also provide a better indication of the potential risks associated with different drugs. This is why FAERS is a must for any scientist or anyone wishing to explore new medication applications in the ever-evolving field of pharmacology!

How to use the dataset
How to Use the FAERS Drug-Indication Associations Dataset
This dataset was created by extracting drug indications from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). It contains drug labels, their RXCUIs, and UMLS/MONDO indications. It can be incredibly useful for medical researchers, pharmaceutical companies, and clinical drug researchers. Here’s a quick guide on how to make use of this dataset:
Research Ideas
- Analyzing the severity of reported adverse effects of different drugs in order to identify any problematic side effects that should be further investigated and addressed.
- Using it as a reference by physicians to look up any potential indications associated with a certain drug before prescribing it to their patients.
- Performing data mining techniques in order to make predictions about potential drug-indication relationships that could lead to the discovery of novel therapies for various diseases and conditions
