Search the live literature, not a snapshot

Six public APIs, no keys and no paywall. Queries are scoped to title and abstract rather than full text, because a full-text hit on Curcuma in a reference list is not evidence of anything. Everything retrieved is then passed through an interaction-vocabulary gate: a paper is admitted only if it actually describes an interaction, not merely because it names a plant and a drug in the same abstract. What survives is ranked against an eight-level evidence hierarchy, so a randomised trial outranks a review that cites it.

Antivirals and antiretrovirals PK-CYP3A4/P-gp induction

Protease inhibitors, NNRTIs and direct-acting antivirals are CYP3A4 and P-glycoprotein substrates with steep concentration-effect relationships. Botanical induction produces sustained subtherapeutic exposure.

Expected clinically: Virological breakthrough and selection of resistant virus - a permanent loss of treatment options.

Retrieved records

Records are ranked by the local hierarchy, not by relevance as the upstream service judges it. Nothing here is written to the knowledge base until a signed-in curator attaches it to a monograph, which keeps retrieval and curation as separate steps.
