I just came across a site completely by accident. I was looking for information on some of my dog's medications. I found an amazing site for a veterinary practice that explains the actions, side effects, etc. of many drugs in very simple language. Their explanation of Enalapril, an ACE inhibitor, was wonderful. It made the Renin-Angiotensin thing comprehensible. LOL
Anyway, you won't find every med you're looking for, and you'll have to bear in mind that they are talking about DOGS AND CATS :), but much of the info is valuable and a good starting place if you need a common-sense explanation of a medication.
