Thomson Healthcare Launches PDRhealth.com as Free Consumer Site

The Physicians' Desk Reference comes online as a new and free health vertical from Thomson Healthcare. PDRhealth.com has information on drugs, diseases and conditions, and also provides online health tools.

"Thomson Healthcare (www.thomsonhealthcare.com), publisher of the Physicians’ Desk Reference, has launched PDRhealth.com as a free site for consumers. PDRhealth.com is based on the same information platform that Thomson Healthcare uses to create the Physicians’ Desk Reference database. This drug information is then paired with comprehensive diagnostic tools. The new PDRhealth.com is designed to put critical health information into the hands of consumers. Individuals can also sign up to receive electronic newsletters, alerts on new clinical trials, and any new information about prescription drugs."
