چکیده
In this paper, we present preliminary results obtained using a system based on cooccurrence of drug-effect pairs as a first step in the study of detecting adverse drug reactions and drug indications from social media texts.

In addition, we also describe the automatic construction of the first Spanish database for drug indications and adverse drug reactions.
