Drug DB Updates are handled with the same update from Multum/Cerner. The updates are applied to the central, SOAPware drug information server on a monthly basis. SOAPware Drug Interaction checking takes place at our data center and is accessed automatically from the SOAPware client via secure web services. A history of Drug Data updates is made available on our publicly available web site.

Drug DB Updates come in two forms - the first is making new "structured" drugs available for download by our users and the second is ensuring that the drug interaction engine has the latest data. In both cases, this is handled with the same update from Multum/Cerner.

The updates are applied to the central, SOAPware drug information server on a monthly basis. To make sure that items on the local database are up to date, it is recommended that the user update SMARText once a month.

SOAPware Drug Interaction checking takes place at our data center and is accessed automatically from the SOAPware client via secure web services. Thus, users have no need to apply drug updates nor do they have to be concerned they are out of date.

Following the release of 2012, SOAPware customers will have the ability to install updages through the Automatic Update process.  For instructions on using Automatic Update, please see: Automatic Updates.
