Through the integration of First DataBank's National Drug Data File Plus (http://www.firstdatabank.com/?CID=ASHP%20Midyear%202008%20email) into American Well's Online Care system, medical professionals are able to access comprehensive drug information for thousands of prescription drugs including a drug's profile and important safety information such as side effects, drug interactions, official warnings and alerts, and medical conditions associated with a particular drug.

"American Well's provision of on-demand, online and telephone care services meets a rapidly growing need of patients and consumers," said Don Nielsen, M.D., President, First DataBank. "A vital component of that online medical consultation is access to reliable and comprehensive drug information to ensure patient safety is protected at all times throughout the care delivery process."
