formulary

In medicine, a list of drugs and other medical preparations that are available for the treatment of diseases. Formularies may contain general advice on prescribing and notes on the various drugs available. These are usually classified according to disease states. Important information relating to drug usage may be listed separately. For example, interactions between drugs, the use of drugs during pregnancy and breast-feeding, and the treatment of poisoning are included in some formularies.
