Drug Info via UpToDate

UpToDate's Drug Interactions section includes a limited amount of drug information for patient care from Lexicomp (the UW has access to 20-40% of the information available via Lexicomp).

For full drug info, the Collection & Research Services Librarian recommends using DynaMedex instead; DynaMedex combines the evidence-based clinical decision making tool of DynaMed with the pharmaceutical information of Micromedex. More info below.
