The DrugBank database available at the University of Alberta is a unique bioinformatics and cheminformatics resource that combines detailed drug (i.e. chemical, pharmacological and pharmaceutical) data with comprehensive drug target (i.e. sequence, structure, pathway) information.[1] The database contains nearly 4800 drug entries including >1480 FDA-approved small molecule drugs, 128 FDA-approved biotech (protein/peptide) drugs, >71 nutraceuticals and >3200 experimental drugs. Additionally, more than 2500 protein (i.e. drug target, non-redundant) sequences are linked to these drug entries. Each DrugCard entry contains more than 100 data fields with half of the information being devoted to drug/chemical data and the other half devoted to drug target or protein data. Users may query DrugBank in any number of ways. It is maintained by David Wishart and Craig Knox.

Hint: It seems not able to visit on weekends or holidays.
