Use Embase to find drug names, synonyms and CAS Registry NumbersScientific literature rarely discusses compounds by their brand names, making the knowledge of preferred terms, synonyms and CAS® Registry Number(s) important when attempting to cast a wide net for search results. Start with Embase® (File 73). All you have to do is EXPAND on a drug name in parentheses to find the preferred term. Then EXPAND the preferred name. SELECT the preferred term, the synonyms and the CAS Registry Number(s) — and you’re good to go to the peer-reviewed literature with confidence. Once you have SELECTED the appropriate terms, ADD MEDLINE® (File 155), BIOSIS Previews® (File 5) and SciSearch®: A Cited Reference Science Database (File 34). Want to make MEDLINE the default database in duplicate detection? No problem: simply SET FILES 155,73,5,34.
