Hello Everyone,
Something that has always concerned me about OpenEMR is the lack of drug interaction checks. It’s an area that two of our developers would like to work on but we’re not really sure where to start with it and so i thought I’d come to the community for some insight.
I’m thinking that, in order to keep the list current and accurate, we’d need to tie into one of the big drug databases out there. But I’m wondering if anyone knows how licensing of their information is handled and if they even provide any kind of raw information we could access.
Thoughts?
