ShowLactationAlternative	Indicates whether to include alternative drug therapy matches for lactation categories in the search results.	boolean	None.

If the DateOfBirth value indicates that the age is not within the childbearing age range, then the method returns the following message: “Input age is not a Child Bearing Age.” If no value is entered, the method returns all possible results for all pregnancy and lactation categories.	date	None.

Trimester	The numeric pregnancy trimester number. If no value is included in the request, then the method returns information for all pregnancy trimesters.	TrimesterEnum	None.
AccessToken	Temporary access token from the GSDD Auth API. Used to validate your license. Note: Access tokens are temporary and may be invalidated early for various reasons, including—but not limited to—site maintenance and security updates. If a token is invalidated prematurely, simply request new tokens via the AccessToken method in the GSDD Auth API. This is a rather rare occurrence, but should be planned for and handled by the consuming application.	string	Required
