Tooluniverse Drug Research
This is a comprehensive drug profiling system that hits 50+ databases to build full investigation reports. It's built around a "report first" workflow where you create the output file immediately, then progressively fill sections as it queries ChEMBL, PubChem, FAERS, ClinicalTrials.gov, PharmGKB, and FDA databases. Everything needs inline citations and evidence grading. The mechanism reasoning is thorough, tracing from target binding through to physiological outcome. It includes extensive fallback chains when APIs fail and has detailed instructions to avoid common pitfalls like using the wrong ChEMBL endpoint. Best for clinicians, researchers, or regulatory work where you need a complete, cited drug profile rather than a quick lookup.

Drug Research Strategy
Comprehensive drug investigation using 50+ ToolUniverse tools across chemical databases, clinical trials, adverse events, pharmacogenomics, and literature.
KEY PRINCIPLES:
- Report-first approach - Create report file FIRST, then populate progressively
- Compound disambiguation FIRST - Resolve identifiers before research
- Citation requirements - Every fact must have inline source attribution
- Evidence grading - Grade claims by evidence strength (T1-T4)
- Mandatory completeness - All sections must exist, even if "data unavailable"
- English-first queries - Always use English drug/compound names in tool calls, even if the user writes in another language. Only try original-language terms as a fallback. Respond in the user's language
LOOK UP, DON'T GUESS
When asked about a drug, query ChEMBL/PubChem/DailyMed FIRST. Don't guess at mechanism, targets, or side effects — look them up. When you're not sure about a fact, your first instinct should be to SEARCH for it using tools, not to reason harder from memory.
