Civic hacking FDA's National Drug Code Directory

(This post is part of an ongoing series documenting adventures in father-son civic hacking.)

README

We built a drug look-up tool of Food and Drug Administration approved medicines using the National Drug Code Directory API. This includes:

• Drug search tool
• Page listing for each FDA-approved medicine

Each drug listing includes:

• Generic name
• Manufacturer
• Labeler
• Ingredients
• Packaging
• Type
• Route
