A DETAILED online database of medical and drug information has been launched by the health minister, Marisol Touraine.
The website, medicaments.gouv.fr, lets you search by the name of the drug, or by its constituent parts, and provides a variety of information.

There is also information on the price of drugs and medicines as well as the reimbursement amounts applicable to products through l'Assurance maladie system.
