UK IPOP Fuzzy Drug Searcher

logo

This tool allows you to compare two terms (drugs) and see how similar they are. It ideally should be used as an explorative tool to identify potential search terms to use in fuzzy search matching. We show information on whether this would be considered a match in our CLI tool using the same algorithmic criteria:

  1. 0 or 1 edits: MATCH
  2. 2 edits and greater than or equal to 0.97 similarity: MATCH
  3. 2 edits and less than 0.97 similarity: NO MATCH
  4. 3 or more edits: NO MATCH
The terms are 96.7% similar
The terms are 1 edits away
MATCH
