UL Library invites you to use the medical dictionary for regulatory activities – MedDRA.
MedDRA (Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities) is an internationally used system of medical terms and codes designed to standardize data from clinical trials and drug safety monitoring. It was developed by the ICH (International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use) to ensure the consistent description and exchange of medical information among researchers, pharmaceutical companies, and regulatory authorities worldwide.
The purpose of MedDRA dictionary is to enable the standardized coding of medical data, facilitating accurate processing, comparison, and analysis of information regarding diseases, symptoms, adverse reactions, medical procedures, and other health-related events.
MedDRA is a valuable resource for professionals working with drug safety, regulatory, or clinical trial data, as well as for those conducting clinical trials, doctoral students, researchers, and students of medicine and pharmacy.
MedDRA has medical terminology available in several languages, i.e. in Latvian and English.
