Spellex announces a new spelling software release, which includes specialty words from the medical and pharmaceutical industries and compatibility for new word processing programs from Microsoft and Corel.

Benefits: Spellex's new medical and pharmaceutical spelling dictionaries offer an excellent alternative to paper medical dictionaries and pharmaceutical word books. By adding Spellex Medical 2008 and Spellex Pharmaceutical 2008 to a common English language spell checker, the spelling dictionaries will verify correctly spelled medical and pharmaceutical words and provide correct spelling choices for incorrectly spelled terms. The spell checkers also allow users to verify unsure spelling of medical and pharmaceutical words by using phonetic or typographical search. The user saves time and increases their accuracy. Both the standard English language dictionary and the Spellex industry dictionaries are checked simultaneously with one mouse click.

Medical: Spellex Medical 2008 adds more than 300,000 medical words from over 70 medical specialties to the basic speller. Spellex checks for accurate spelling of medical and surgical terms, procedures, diseases, drug names, acronyms, eponyms, medical devices, abbreviations, Greek terms and diacritical markings such as Behçet's syndrome and Legg-Calvé-Waldenström disease. Medical dictionary users can subscribe to the Spell-X-Plustm software subscription service for quarterly software updates of new medical terms, new medications, and more.

Pharmaceutical: Spellex Pharmaceutical 2008 correctly spells thousands of OTC drugs and prescription pharmaceuticals, generic and trade name drugs, Latin and Greek terms, orphan drugs, pharmaceutical manufacturers, drug distributors, and more. The pharmaceutical speller includes comprehensive pharmacologic - therapeutic classifications covering anesthetics, anti-infective agents, antineoplastic agents, cardiovascular drugs, central nervous system agents, dental agents, diagnostic agents, enzymes, gastrointestinal drugs, oxytocics, serums and vaccines, vitamins, and more!

Prices for the medical and pharmaceutical dictionaries start at $69.95 for single users and $374.95 for ten user licenses. Larger licenses and educational discounts are available. Spellex dictionaries are compatible with Microsoft, most Windows programs, developer tools, custom applications, Web browsers, and are available in US English or UK English.
