International usefulness

Martindale aims to cover drugs and related substances reported to be of clinical interest anywhere in the world. It provides a useful source of information for patients arriving from abroad to identify their existing medication. This may reveal that a currently taken proprietary preparation is available under another brand name. Alternatively if the drug is not available, the class of agent can be determined allowing a pharmacist or doctor to determine which alternative equivalent drugs can be substituted. Monographs include Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS), Anatomical Therapeutic Chemical Classification System (ATC) numbers and FDA Unique Ingredient Identifier (UNII) codes to help readers refer to other information systems.

Arrangement

Martindale is arranged into two main parts followed by three extensive indexes:

  • Monographs on drugs and ancillary substances, listing over 6,000 monographs arranged in 49 chapters based on clinical use with the corresponding disease treatment reviews. Monographs summarize the nomenclature, properties, and actions of each substance. A chapter on supplementary drugs and other substances covers some 1190 monographs on new drugs, those not easily classified, herbals, and drugs no longer clinically used but still of interest. Monographs of some toxic substances are also included.
  • Preparations - including over 180,000 items from 43 countries and regions, including China.
  • Directory of Manufacturers listing some 20,000 entries.
  • Pharmaceutical Terms in Various Languages: this index lists nearly 5,600 pharmaceutical terms and routes of administration in 13 major European languages as an aid to the non-native speaker in interpreting packaging, product information, or prescriptions written in another language.
  • General index: prepared from 175,000 entries it includes approved names, synonyms and chemical names; a separate Cyrillic section lists nonproprietary and proprietary names in Russian and Ukrainian.
