Retrieve publications related to a drug, including PubMed IDs and publication dates.
AI agents call get_publications_by_drug_name to retrieve information from OrigeneMCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool only reads and returns existing publication metadata from a database. It has no side effects, does not modify data, execute code, delete information, or involve financial transactions. The blast radius of misuse is minimal - an agent could retrieve irrelevant publications but cannot cause harm through this operation alone.
From the tool's definition Tool description states 'Retrieve publications' - a query operation that retrieves data (PubMed IDs and publication dates) without modification.
