Adverse drug events are harms associated with use, whether the is used correctly or incorrectly. Identifying adverse vital in pharmacovigilance to safeguard public health. Drug safety surveillance can be performed using unstructured data. A comprehensive and accurate list of names essential for effective identification events. While there numerous sources names, RxNorm widely recognized as a leading resource. However, its effectiveness data analysis has not been thoroughly assessed. To address this, we evaluated their suitability developed refined set names. Initially, removed duplicates, exceeding 199 characters, those that only describe administrative details. four fewer characters were analyzed 18,000 drug-related PubMed abstracts remove which rarely appear The remaining ranged from five further exclude could lead inaccurate counts analysis. We compared efficiency accuracy original by testing both on abstracts. results showed decrease computational cost number false identified. Further revealed most originated one 14 sources. Our findings suggest enhance analysis, thereby improving pharmacovigilance.
