Provides a textual description of the strength of the active ingredient(s) in the medication


Comments:
Usage Note: When prescribing by chemical only (i.e. CCDD TM) the strength will be provided as either a discrete value or provided as part of the dosage instructions.



It is recommended that it be provided as a discrete field as it helps the pharmacy in selecting the correct product.



When prescribing by other levels (i.e. CCDD NTP, CCDD MP, DIN) the strength will be included as part of the drug name (Medication.code.text) but may also be here as a discrete field.
