\item{language}{language of the returned text, defaults to system language (see \code{\link[=get_locale]{get_locale()}}) and can also be set with \code{getOption("AMR_locale")}. Use \code{language = NULL} or \code{language = ""} to prevent translation.}
\item{tolower}{logical to indicate whether the first character of every output should be transformed to a lower case character. This will lead to e.g. "polymyxin B" and not "polymyxin b".}
\item An \code{\link{integer}} in case of \code{\link[=ab_cid]{ab_cid()}}
\item A named \code{\link{list}} in case of \code{\link[=ab_info]{ab_info()}} and multiple \code{\link[=ab_synonyms]{ab_synonyms()}}/\code{\link[=ab_tradenames]{ab_tradenames()}}
\item A \code{\link{double}} in case of \code{\link[=ab_ddd]{ab_ddd()}}
\item A \code{\link{character}} in all other cases
Use these functions to return a specific property of an antibiotic from the \link{antibiotics} data set. All input values will be evaluated internally with \code{\link[=as.ab]{as.ab()}}.
The function \code{\link[=ab_url]{ab_url()}} will return the direct URL to the official WHO website. A warning will be returned if the required ATC code is not available.
The \link[=lifecycle]{lifecycle} of this function is \strong{stable}. In a stable function, major changes are unlikely. This means that the unlying code will generally evolve by adding new arguments; removing arguments or changing the meaning of existing arguments will be avoided.
If the unlying code needs breaking changes, they will occur gradually. For example, a parameter will be deprecated and first continue to work, but will emit an message informing you of the change. Next, typically after at least one newly released version on CRAN, the message will be transformed to an error.
