Abstract
This article discusses some of the drug-related databases that are available for free from governmental agencies. It includes databases produced by the National Library of Medicine, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and other Health and Human Services agencies. Some of these sources may be very familiar to librarians, whereas others may be a bit more obscure. Hospital librarians have to be generalists and it may be hard for them to keep up in every subject area, especially with all the changes that are occurring in information resources.
