Pillbox: Community and Developer Partnering to Restructure...
summary
Pillbox restructures FDA drug label XML (the full set is >1 GB; individual labels run 2–4,000 lines) by matching FDA data with NLM records, producing a public, Section 508 compliant drug ID and reference system with high‑resolution tablet images and web services. A beta with 10,000+ records feeds an API that powers a three‑week student phone/IM demo, iPhone apps and an open‑source Facebook drug‑ID tool, and is already used by hospitals and poison centers.
