About NLM RxNorm (Drug Database) MCP Server
Connect your AI agent to the National Library of Medicine (NLM) RxNorm database. This server provides comprehensive access to standardized drug nomenclature and relationships, allowing for precise identification and analysis of pharmaceutical products.
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple NLM RxNorm (Drug Database) tool calls autonomously. query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 21 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.
What you can do
- Drug Search — Find RxNorm Concept Unique Identifiers (RxCUIs) by name, identifier (NDC, ATC, SNOMEDCT), or approximate matching using
find_rxcui_by_stringandfind_rxcui_by_id. - Property Inspection — Retrieve detailed drug properties, including names, synonyms, and attributes categorized by source via
get_all_properties. - Relationship Mapping — Explore related concepts and term types (TTY) to understand drug hierarchies and ingredients using
get_all_related_info. - Spelling Correction — Get suggestions for misspelled drug names to ensure accurate queries with
get_spelling_suggestions. - NDC & Identifier Lookup — Map external codes to RxNorm standards for interoperability.
The NLM RxNorm (Drug Database) MCP Server exposes 21 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Windsurf in under two minutes — credentials fully managed, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
