mhra_search

Pack: mhra-uk · Endpoint: https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mhra-uk/mcp

Search the UK MHRA products register by product name, brand name or active substance — e.g. “ibuprofen”, “Nurofen”, “atorvastatin”. Post-Brexit the EMA register does not cover the UK, so this is the UK authorisation surface. Returns one row per DOCUMENT (a product usually has an SmPC, a patient leaflet and sometimes an assessment report), each with its PL number, the MHRA territory it covers, the document date and a direct link to the authoritative PDF. Use mhra_product to gather every document for one PL number.
