Compare Drug Summaries: Presentation of DrugPoints® content for two or more selected drugs in a side-by-side tabular format.

This feature is designed to help users find drugs in a given therapeutic class or find drugs in a different class. Users will have the ability to select several drugs from the list and view them in the Compare Drug Summaries feature, or to view the drug summary/point for a single drug.
