When you received prescribed medication at the Medical facility in Japan, you also receive “drug information sheet”.
However, many of the medical facilities have only Japanese version.
Most of our patients are Japanese or who understands Japanese in this clinic as well, but we also have non-Japanese speakers.
Therefore, I asked pharmaceutical companies, whether they have a drug information sheet in English, then, I learnt this website existed.
You can search drugs by product name, active substance or keyword such as “ointment hemorrhoid”. And search result will be a list with photos.
I hope you can find a drug information you need at the website below.
