New drugs on Epocrates

Here are some new drugs that have been recently added to Epocrates.

* Agriflu (influenza A and B (seasonal flu) vaccine)
* Berinert (C1 inhibitor (human))
* budesonide inhaled (first-time generic for Pulmicort)
* Cervarix (human papillomavirus vaccine (recombinant))
* Influenza A H1N1 2009 Vaccine (GSK) (influenza A H1N1 2009 (swine flu) vaccine)
* ketorolac ophthalmic (first-time generic for Acular)
* lansoprazole (first-time generic for Prevacid)
* valacyclovir (first-time generic for Valtrex)
* Vibativ (telavancin)
* Votrient (pazopanib)
* Zenpep (pancrelipase)

Wow, it's hard to believe how quickly some of these drugs have gone generic. It seems like yesterday when drugs like Valtrex were approved by the FDA (this goes to show you how quickly time flies). If you're using Epocrates, make sure to keep your software current by performing regular updates.
