CISMeF is one such health portal that is designed to give information about drugs. The website uses MeSH thesaurus to index the scientific articles of the MEDLINE database and the Dublin Core Metadata. The system creates a meta term drug and uses that as search criteria to find all information about a specific drug. The website uses simple and advanced search. The simple search allows you to search search by a brand name or by any code given by the drugs. Advanced search allows a more specific search by allowing you enter everything that describes the drug you are looking for.
