An Electronic Drug Registration and Listing System (EDRLS) has been proposed by the FDA that would include a complete list of drug products marketed in the U.S. A change from the current paper system, the new electronic list would be available to healthcare providers, government agencies, and healthcare payers and would include specifics such as dosage forms, ingredients, strengths, labeling, and manufacturing information.
