Dietary Supplements Labels Database Improved

NLM's Dietary Supplements Labels Database includes information from the labels of over 3,000 brands of dietary supplements in the marketplace, including vitamins, minerals, herbs or other botanicals, amino acids, and other specialty supplements. It now includes several interface improvements, more products, and an auto-complete (search) feature. Other recent additions/changes include:
  • Search box on every page
  • Age/gender categories under "Products"
  • Glossary page with A-Z anchor links
  • Updated FDA Recalls, FDA MedWatch and FTC Actions
  • More products (3000)
The database is designed to help both the general public and health care providers find information about ingredients in brand-name products, including name, form, active and inactive ingredients, amount of active ingredient/unit, manufacturer/distributor information, suggested dose, label claims, warnings, percentage of daily value, and further label information.
