# FDA Drug Labels by Generic Name — Ibuprofen (SPL)

**Use case:** 

FDA structured product labels for a generic drug name, newest version first: SPL set id and version, brand and generic name, labeler, NDC codes, route, product type, application number, effective date and a label link. For clinical apps, pharmacy software and drug-database builders who need one authoritative label per product. Replace the search words with any generic or brand name.

## Input

```json
{
  "mode": "drugLabels",

  "query": "ibuprofen",
  "searchField": "genericName",
  "onlyNew": false,

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [openFDA API: FDA Recalls, Drug Labels & Device Reports](https://apify.com/yadroo/openfda-records.md) with a specific input configuration. Visit the [Actor detail page](https://apify.com/yadroo/openfda-records.md) to learn more, explore other use cases, and run it yourself.


## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/yadroo/openfda-records.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
