N2  - The Pharma-safe Index Dataset comprises comprehensive information on several aspects of pharmaceuticals, including general medication data, usage guidelines, dosage, adverse effects, pricing, drug interactions, duration of use, composition, and contraindications. The dataset is provided in both CSV and JSON file formats, and it is available in both English and Bahasa Indonesia. By conducting interviews, distributing flyers, and using pharmacy books, the dataset was collected from over-the-counter medications that were sold at three pharmacies located in Yogyakarta, Indonesia. A medical professional performed cleansing, standardization, and validation on it before it was exported to JSON and CSV formats. The data collected on drug efficacy, safety, and patient outcomes in Indonesia can be utilized by researchers in order to uncover trends and developing patterns of prescription drug resistance. It is possible that this will direct future research, lead to improvements in drug formulations, treatment strategies, and public health policies, and expand our understanding of how drugs work and how they affect patient health.
