    How can I find out how many different manufacturers produce a specific generic drug?

    You can use the count_drug_labels capability. Set the count parameter to openfda.manufacturer_name.exact and use the search parameter to filter by the generic name.

  • 03

    Is it possible to sort results by the most recent label updates?

    Yes. When using search_drug_labels, you can provide a sort parameter such as effective_time:desc to see the most recently updated labels first.
