Self-service API -- transparent pricing

Looking for an alternative to EfficaSafe?

RxLabelGuard delivers FDA-sourced drug interaction data through a REST API with severity scoring, mechanism details, and evidence citations. Transparent pricing starting at $20/month with a 7-day free trial. Self-service signup, no sales call required.

What is EfficaSafe?

EfficaSafe is a drug and supplement interaction reference. Teams evaluating interaction data sources sometimes compare it with other clinical drug information products when deciding how to add interaction checking to their software.

We have intentionally kept the description of EfficaSafe brief. For authoritative and up-to-date details about EfficaSafe's features, coverage, and pricing, please consult EfficaSafe directly. The rest of this page focuses on what RxLabelGuard provides so you can decide whether a self-service, FDA-sourced interaction API fits your use case.

RxLabelGuard is a focused drug interaction detection API. It resolves drug inputs to standard identifiers, retrieves the latest FDA Structured Product Labeling, and returns structured interaction data with severity scoring and evidence citations. It is built for developers who want to send drug names to an endpoint and receive JSON back, rather than browse a reference interface.

Why teams choose RxLabelGuard

The reasons below describe RxLabelGuard's own capabilities. They are not claims about EfficaSafe -- consult EfficaSafe for details on what it offers.

Self-service signup

Create an account, generate an API key, and start querying drug interactions in minutes. There is no sales process to work through before you can begin building and testing.

Transparent, published pricing

Plans and request limits are listed publicly: Developer at $20/month and Professional at $99/month. You can budget for a project without requesting a custom quote first.

FDA-sourced evidence citations

Every interaction result includes verifiable references drawn from FDA Structured Product Labeling -- the SPL Set ID, label section, and evidence text -- for compliance documentation and clinical audit trails.

Modern REST API

Send drug names, NDC codes, or RxCUI identifiers to an endpoint and receive structured JSON with severity, mechanism, and recommendations. The API works with any system that can make HTTP requests.

Standardized severity levels

Interactions are classified across five severity levels -- contraindicated, major, moderate, minor, and unknown -- so you can apply consistent alerting and scoring logic in your own application.

A 7-day free trial

Test your critical drug pairs during a 7-day free trial of the Developer plan before entering payment. This lets you validate coverage for your specific use case up front.

The "EfficaSafe" column is intentionally left to EfficaSafe's own documentation. We avoid stating specifics we cannot independently verify. RxLabelGuard focuses on drug interaction detection sourced from FDA Structured Product Labeling with evidence citations.

How RxLabelGuard works

Three steps from drug names to structured interaction data.

1

Send drug names

Pass drug names, NDC codes, or RxCUI identifiers to our REST API endpoint. We accept brand names, generic names, and common abbreviations.

2

We resolve and fetch

Your input is normalized to RxCUI via RxNorm fuzzy matching, then we retrieve the latest FDA Structured Product Label for each drug.

3

Get structured interactions

Receive interaction pairs with severity level, mechanism of action, clinical recommendations, and FDA evidence citations including SPL Set ID and label section.

Start with a single API call

Check drug interactions in your language of choice. All responses include severity scoring and FDA evidence citations.

cURL

curl -X POST https://jd6095ijga.execute-api.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/v1/interactions/check \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -d '{
    "drugs": ["warfarin", "aspirin"]
  }'

Python

import requests

response = requests.post(
    "https://jd6095ijga.execute-api.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/v1/interactions/check",
    headers={
        "Content-Type": "application/json",
        "x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY",
    },
    json={"drugs": ["warfarin", "aspirin"]},
)

data = response.json()
for interaction in data.get("interactions", []):
    print(f"{interaction['severity']}: {interaction['description']}")

JavaScript

const response = await fetch(
  "https://jd6095ijga.execute-api.us-east-2.amazonaws.com/v1/interactions/check",
  {
    method: "POST",
    headers: {
      "Content-Type": "application/json",
      "x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY",
    },
    body: JSON.stringify({ drugs: ["warfarin", "aspirin"] }),
  }
);

const data = await response.json();
data.interactions.forEach((interaction) => {
  console.log(`${interaction.severity}: ${interaction.description}`);
});

  • --You are specifically evaluating EfficaSafe as a drug and supplement interaction reference and want to review its coverage and delivery directly
  • --Your requirements depend on features that EfficaSafe documents for its own product
  • --We encourage you to consult EfficaSafe directly to confirm whether it meets your needs -- we do not make claims about its capabilities here

Choose RxLabelGuard if you need

  • --Focused drug interaction checking via a modern REST API that returns structured JSON
  • --Self-service onboarding where you can create an account, generate an API key, and start testing in minutes
  • --Transparent, publicly listed pricing that starts at $20/month with a 7-day free trial for evaluation and prototyping
  • --FDA-sourced evidence citations with every interaction result, including SPL Set ID, label section, and evidence text for audit trails and compliance

Common use cases

Teams reach for a focused interaction API when they need to embed drug interaction checking directly into their own software.

EHR integration modules

Development teams building drug interaction checking into electronic health record systems need an API they can call at the point of prescribing. A self-service API with clear documentation reduces integration time from months to days.

Pharmacy dispensing software

Pharmacy software vendors embedding interaction alerts into their dispensing workflow need programmatic access to interaction data with severity levels and clinical recommendations.

Telehealth and digital health apps

Digital health startups and telehealth platforms need lightweight drug interaction checking that fits within their existing API architecture. A free trial allows prototyping before committing.

Clinical decision support tools

Teams building clinical decision support tools need interaction data they can incorporate into their own scoring and alerting logic, not a fixed reference interface.
