Most databases have a citation builder to help you quickly collect the information you need for your citations. Some even have AMA format as an option. Use it, but then be sure to double check things because they're not always 100% correct.
ProQuest and EBSCO databases all have AMA format as a citation style option. Gale databases do not, so you'll need to do a little more work adapting the information to AMA style.
