Important Update: SEER*Rx has a new look! SEER*Rx now has a new and improved search engine that does faster and more intelligent full text searching of all fields, with a sortable results table and a new relevance column so you can tell how relevant each search result is to your entered search string. Additionally, each drug and regimen is now displayed in its own page so that you can bookmark specific entries.

SEER*Rx was developed as a one-step lookup for coding oncology drug and regimen treatment categories in cancer registries. The information in this database is effective for cancer diagnoses made on January 1, 2005 and after. Review and recoding of drugs from previous years is not required or recommended.
