   • Is the heading the name of a related drug? If so, click here.
   • Is no heading or "supplementary concept" located? If so, click here.
   • Is the heading a generic or a scientific name for your drug? If so, click here.
     
     
3. After completing the steps on the appropriate 'Click here' page, check the PubMed "Advanced Search" page to be sure your drug search has been recorded in your PubMed search history. This step is necessary because of some idiosyncracies in PubMed's interactions with multi-framed webpages.
