Hey everyone,

As I’ve been navigating clinical rotations, I realized how often I’d know a generic drug name from Anki but struggle to recognize the commercial brand name used on the wards. To bridge this gap, I built an add-on that automatically appends brand names to your cards in real-time.

How it works

The add-on intercepts your cards during review and dynamically adds the commercial names in parentheses—for example, it turns metformin into metformin (Glucophage).

• Massive Library: It comes pre-loaded with over 800+ drugs, covering everything from common analgesics to critical care agents like Dexmedetomidine (Precedex) and Sugammadex (Bridion). I'll continually update this list over time which will be sent out automatically to any users.
• Smart Insertion: It only adds the brand name if it isn't already present on the card, preventing messy redundancies.
• Customizable UI: You can add your own custom drug-to-brand mappings through a streamlined menu directly in the Anki Tools menu.
• Exclusion Logic: You can blacklist specific tags (like NoBrand) or entire deck hierarchies so it doesn't clutter your non-medical decks.

This was made purely to help medical students navigate third- and fourth-year rotations.
