About
This dataset is designed for evaluating drug performance, focusing on assessing the quality, cost, and effectiveness of medications [1]. It provides key metrics to compare and analyse various drugs across 37 common medical conditions [1, 2]. The dataset includes detailed information on drug names, indications, types, customer reviews, effectiveness ratings, ease-of-use ratings, satisfaction levels, and average prices [1, 3-5]. It serves as a valuable resource for understanding consumer perceptions of medications and their real-world impact [6].
Columns
The dataset is available in two main files,
Drug.csv and Drug_clean.csv, with the following columns:Drug.csv
- Condition: The medical condition associated with the drug (String) [2, 3].
- Drug: The name of the drug (String) [2, 3].
- Indication: The purpose of the drug (String) [3, 7].
- Type: The type of drug, such as generic or brand (String) [3, 7].
- Reviews: The number of reviews associated with the drug (Integer) [3, 8].
- Effective: The effectiveness of the drug based on customer reviews (Integer) [3, 8].
- EaseOfUse: The ease of use of the drug based on customer reviews (Integer) [4, 9].
- Satisfaction: The satisfaction level of the drug based on customer reviews (Integer) [4, 9, 10].
- Information: Other relevant information about the drug (String) [4, 10, 11].
Drug_clean.csv
- Condition: The medical condition associated with the drug (String) [4].
- Drug: The name of the drug (String) [4].
- EaseOfUse: The ease of use of the drug based on customer reviews (Integer) [4].
- Effective: The effectiveness of the drug based on customer reviews (Integer) [4].
- Indication: The purpose of the drug (String) [5].
- Reviews: The number of reviews associated with the drug (Integer) [5].
- Satisfaction: The satisfaction level of the drug based on customer reviews (Integer) [5].
- Type: The type of drug, such as generic or brand (String) [5].
- Form: The form of the drug, e.g., tablet, capsule, etc. (String) [5].
- Price: The average price of the drug (Float) [5].
Distribution
The dataset is provided in CSV format [12]. The
Drug.csv file has a size of 1.19 MB and contains 9 columns [2]. It includes 2219 valid records across its various fields [2, 7-11].Usage
This dataset is ideal for:
- Comparing and analysing the effectiveness, cost, and satisfaction of different drugs [1].
- Developing smart algorithms for recommending prescription drugs based on patient medical conditions and other factors [13].
- Comparing the overall performance of various drug types across different conditions [13].
- Analysing drug price points to enhance access to affordable treatments, particularly for those with lower incomes or in need of healthcare services [13].
- Performing descriptive statistical analysis (e.g., mean, median values) to understand drug performance [14].
- Grouping data by condition, type, and form to gain deeper insights into drug responses [14].
- Understanding the interaction between reviews, ratings, and other factors to aid in health news coverage and informed medical purchases [6].
Coverage
The dataset focuses on drug performance metrics for 37 common medical conditions, including conditions like fever and hypertension [1, 2]. It covers various drug types (generic or brand) and forms (e.g., tablet, capsule) [3, 5, 7]. No specific geographic or time range is explicitly detailed within the provided information.
