Get Properties of an Antiviral Drug

Use these functions to return a specific property of an antiviral drug from the antivirals data set. All input values will be evaluated internally with as.av().

Usage

av_name(x, language = get_AMR_locale(), tolower = FALSE, ...)

av_cid(x, ...)

av_synonyms(x, ...)

av_tradenames(x, ...)

av_group(x, language = get_AMR_locale(), ...)

av_atc(x, ...)

av_loinc(x, ...)

av_ddd(x, administration = "oral", ...)

av_ddd_units(x, administration = "oral", ...)

av_info(x, language = get_AMR_locale(), ...)

av_url(x, open = FALSE, ...)

av_property(x, property = "name", language = get_AMR_locale(), ...)

Arguments

x:

Any (vector of) text that can be coerced to a valid antiviral drug code with as.av().
language:

Language of the returned text - the default is system language (see get_AMR_locale()) and can also be set with the package option AMR_locale. Use language = NULL or language = "" to prevent translation.
tolower:

A logical to indicate whether the first character of every output should be transformed to a lower case character.
...:

Other arguments passed on to as.av().
administration:

Way of administration, either "oral" or "iv".
open:

Browse the URL using utils::browseURL().
property:

One of the column names of one of the antivirals data set: vector_or(colnames(antivirals), sort = FALSE).

Value

An integer in case of av_cid()
A named list in case of av_info() and multiple av_atc()/av_synonyms()/av_tradenames()
A double in case of av_ddd()
A character in all other cases

Details

All output will be translated where possible.

The function av_url() will return the direct URL to the official WHO website. A warning will be returned if the required ATC code is not available.
