Where the data comes from

Active substances are tied to one ingredient each (salts and hydrates set aside, esters that make a different medicine kept), strengths are read from product names, and a foreign brand is matched to Turkish products by ingredients, then strength and dosage form. Matching is automatic and can miss unusual spellings; it never replaces a pharmacist.
