Adis Newsletters is a full text bibliographical database on the most important development about drugs and drug therapy. The database contains bibliographical data, keywords describing the content, full texts and references. It complies to the three journals (subunits) as regards contents:
| Subject Coverage | Drugs and drug therapy |

Reactions: 1983 to present Growth per year: approx. 4,600 documents You will find the number of database records in the current update status. |
| Update Cycle | Daily |
A search in the field "Document Type (DT)" runs both via the Document Type of the document as well as that of the associated references.
The database is searchable both with DIMDI SmartSearch and DIMDI ClassicSearch.
No authors are indicated for the full texts. However, the authors of the references are searchable (RA= Referenced Author).
Individual full texts are published identically (partly with modified title) in the different journals (identifiable by the same NDAN numbers). Possibly found duplicates can be eliminated to a large extent before the output of the target information with the command "ch dup" to avoid unnecessary costs.
The use of presently 30 qualifiers in connection with the Controlled Terms (CT), (e.g. clobetasol/therapeutic use) is possible. By their use the context can be described in detail.
Standing orders (SDI) are possible for Premium customers.
