Claim One:
1. A data processing system configured for computer visualization of drugs for drug interaction, generic substance information and drug pricing information retrieval, comprising: a processor; a camera communicatively coupled to the processor; and a marshalling apparatus configured to receive a plurality of different substances and isolate individual ones of the different substances for imaging by the camera and defining a marshalling point, wherein the camera is positioned to focus on the marshalling point, the processor being communicatively coupled to a data store of drug image data, a data store of generic substance data, a data store of drug interaction, and a data store of pricing information for brand name drugs and generic substances, wherein the processor is configured to acquire, using the camera, for each of the plurality of different substances, images of at least one external characteristic of a physical body of the substance, determine an identity of each of the plurality of different substances based upon the at least one external characteristic from the acquired images, retrieve the drug interaction data for each of the plurality of different substances using the determined identities, retrieve the pricing information for each of the plurality of different substances based upon the determined identities, correlate drug interaction data for at least one of the plurality of different substances with at least one other of the plurality of different substances, identify at least one generic substance of at least one of the plurality of different substances, determine a price comparison between the identified generic substance and a brand name drug equivalent, and simultaneously display the correlated drug interaction data, the at least one generic substance and the price comparison between the identified generic substance and the brand name drug equivalent.
