Whenever I have to look up a medication, I usually go to costco.com, under pharmacy. There is a link to get drug info and you can choose the letter that the medication starts with and do a search from there.

rxlist.com - orthogirl

I have used this site for a long time. You can put in a drug the way it sounds and not spell it completely correct and it will give you choices. I also use this to double check dosages, etc. if the dictation is not clear.

Another site I have come across is empr.com

drugs.com - oncoMT

you can do fuzzy searches which is great

I've seen QC and QA fill in the medication when it was badly mispronounced. Example: Methylprednisone for methylprednisolone (there is no methylprednisone). ...

posted about never would they work for 7 cpl as IC. It must be nice to be able to choose your pay.
