- Generic competition analysis - see how many labelers market the same molecule and since when
- Healthcare data integration - map NDC codes to names, strengths and dosage forms
- Market entry research - check which dosage forms and routes already exist for an ingredient
- Supply chain and procurement - resolve package NDCs to product details
- Regulatory research - trace products back to their NDA or ANDA application number
Why the NDC directory
Listing a drug product with the FDA is mandatory before it can be marketed in the United States, so the NDC directory is the authoritative product master. openFDA republishes it with normalised fields and daily updates, free for any use.
Notes
- The directory lists products, not packages. One product can carry several package NDCs, all included in
packageNdcs. marketingEndDateis only present for products that have been withdrawn or delisted.- openFDA refuses offsets beyond 25 000 records; narrow the filters to reach deeper.
