Return the searchable field paths for an openFDA endpoint, grouped by category with type and description. Use before constructing a search query to find the correct dotted field path — field names differ per endpoint and are not discoverable from the tool schema alone.

Resolve one drug name to its FDA identity, then fan out in parallel across the bounded per-drug openFDA endpoints and merge into one profile: identity, label highlights, adverse-event summary, recall history, Drugs@FDA approval, and shortage status. Replaces chaining openfda_get_drug_label, openfda_search_adverse_events, openfda_search_recalls, openfda_search_drug_approvals, and openfda_search_drug_shortages — and reconciles the identifier drift between endpoints that makes that chaining error-prone. Each section is best-effort: a miss returns null rather than failing the call. For deep dives into any one area, use the dedicated tool.

Look up FDA drug labeling (package inserts / SPL documents). Check indications, warnings, dosage, contraindications, active ingredients, or any structured label section.

Look up drugs in the NDC (National Drug Code) Directory. Identify drug products by NDC code, find active ingredients, packaging details, or manufacturer info. Pair with openfda_get_drug_label using the returned brand_name or set_id to read the package insert.

Search adverse event reports across drugs, food, and devices. Use to investigate safety signals, find reports for a specific product, or explore reactions by demographics.

Search adverse event reports for veterinary drugs and devices submitted to the FDA Center for Veterinary Medicine. Records include animal species, breed, age, weight, drug name and route, adverse reactions (using VeDDRA terminology), and outcome. Use to investigate safety signals for veterinary products, find reports by animal species or drug, or explore reaction patterns.

Search FDA device premarket notifications — 510(k) clearances and PMA approvals.

Search the Drugs@FDA database for drug application approvals (NDAs and ANDAs). Returns application details, sponsor info, and full submission history. Pair with openfda_get_drug_label to read the approved label, or openfda_count_values to aggregate by sponsor_name, product_type, or route.

Search FDA drug shortage records. Returns per-product shortage status, availability, therapeutic category, dosage form, manufacturer, and dates. Use to check whether a drug is currently in shortage, find all oncology drugs with supply issues, or retrieve the openfda block (brand_name, product_ndc, rxcui) to chain into openfda_get_drug_label or openfda_lookup_ndc.

Search enforcement reports and recall actions across drugs, food, and devices.

Search problem reports submitted to the FDA for tobacco products, including e-cigarettes, vaping products, cigarettes, and smokeless tobacco. Reports capture product type, reported health problems (e.g. seizure, chest pain), product problems (e.g. exploding battery), whether a non-user was affected, and submission date. Use to investigate safety signals, find reports by product type, or analyze health effects.
