More Drug Information on SilverPlatter CD-ROM

November 23, 1993 -- SilverPlatter announces two new drug information
databases on CD-ROM. The databases, USP DI Volume 1, Drug Information for
the Health Care Professional, and USP DI Volume ll, Advise for the
Patient, are published by the United States Pharmaceopeial Convention
(USP).

USP DI, Volume I, Drug Information for the Health Care Professional,
provides dispensing, prescribing and drug use information on practically
all drug products available in the United States and Canada. It is
recognized as a compendium for unlabeled uses, patient counseling, and
drug utilization review in the Medicaid provision of the Omnibus Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1990 (OBRA '90). This database is automatically
accompanied by USP DI Volume II.

USP DI Volume II, Advise for the Patient, is written specifically for
patients, in easy-to-understand language that is uncluttered by technical
data and terminology. It includes descriptions of uses and pronunciation
of drugs, as well as information on dosages, precautions, and side
effects. USP DI, Volume II may be purchased separately from USP DI, Volume
1. It is also available on the same CD as USP DI Volume 1.

USP DI is the result of a comprehensive drug information development system
designed to provide authoritative, consensus-based information for those
who prescribe, dispense, administer, or use medications. It is the only
published compendium with a structured system designed to obtain review by
elected and appointed experts from throughout the world, and comments by
all interested parties and the public.

USP DI Volumes I and II are updated quarterly.

As one of the first providers of information on CD-ROM, SilverPlatter has a
distinguished reputation for bringing the right information with the right
software to the service of its markets.
