The SMILES-SMART pattern matching function in Rdkit [23], a Python cheminformatics package, was used to search the structural alert library for drugs containing substructures. The 407 drugs were screened against the library. The AD-positive and -negative drugs were considered true positives and true negatives for statistical analysis. High daily dose has been identified as a contributing factor to ADRs [14,16,24], and as was suggested in the literature, we set the cutoff daily dose to ≥100 mg [17].
