Yeah, this will be written up in the new CDM documentation we are working on. But here is the short shrift:
- If it is a solid formulation, quantity means those units
- if it is a liquid formulation, quantity means the value. The unit is defined in DRUG_STRENGTH for each ingredient. If for example you got mg there you have to put the value in mg.
- If you don’t have a formulation then quantity makes no sense. If you want to record the strength (e.g. Acetaminophen 500 mg) then find that Clinical Drug Comp. If there isn’t one, let us know.
