Extract FDA-approved drug labels from the National Library of Medicine's DailyMed Structured Product Label (SPL) API. DailyMed is the official archive of every drug label currently in distribution in the US — prescription, OTC, generic, and biologic.
For each SPL this Actor returns the set ID, label title (including dosage form and labeler), published date, SPL version number, plus deep links to the canonical lookup page, raw XML, and full JSON document — so you can chain to label-specific extraction pipelines.
