Do I need an API key to use this skill?

While the API works without a key for limited use, registering for an openFDA API key is recommended to increase rate limits from 1,000 to 120,000 requests per day.

Does this skill provide real-time recall information?

Yes, it accesses the FDA's enforcement reports to monitor drug, device, and food recalls and safety actions in real-time.

Can it help with chemical substance identification?

Yes, the skill includes substance lookup capabilities for UNII codes, CAS number mapping, and molecular structure research.

What is the FDA Database Claude Code skill?

It is a specialized skill that allows Claude to interact with the openFDA API to fetch and analyze data regarding drugs, devices, foods, and veterinary products.

Can I search for specific medical device clearances?

Yes, the skill provides endpoints for searching 510(k) Premarket Notifications and PMA (Premarket Approval) data for Class III devices.
