763158003 |Medicinal product (product)|

900000000000073002 |Sufficiently defined by necessary conditions definition status (core metadata concept)|

Exceptions:

• • Concepts with product strength that is "not equal to" (e.g. with product strength expressed as a range, greater than, or less than) will have definition status 900000000000074008 |Necessary but not sufficient concept definition status (core metadata concept)|

Range: 736542009 |Pharmaceutical dose form (dose form)|

• • • While the allowed range for this attribute is broader, the CD-precise continuous dose from concepts should only use <736542009 | Pharmaceutical dose form (dose form), excluding grouper concepts based on intended site (e.g. 740596000 |Cutaneous dose form (dose form)|, 385268001 |Oral dose form (dose form)|).

Cardinality: 1..1

Powder and granules for oral suspension, solution, etc., may be modeled using concentration strength and the administrable dose form (e.g. 1145409004 |Product containing precisely amoxicillin 25 milligram/1 milliliter and clavulanic acid (as clavulanate potassium) 6.25 milligram/1 milliliter conventional release oral suspension (clinical drug)|)

Concrete Type: Integer

Range: >#0..

Cardinality: 1..1

Range: <105590001 |Substance (substance) excluding concepts representing structural groupers, dispositions, or combined substances

Cardinality: 1..1 per relationship group

• The Precise Active Ingredient (PAI) cannot be modeled as a substance hydrate or solvate unless the BoSS is expressed as a hydrate or solvate.
• Concepts containing pancreatic enzymes will be modeled based on the discrete enzymes; because of variability between real clinical drugs, synonyms representing a total amount in a particular product will not be included in the International Release.

Expression of product strength in metric units is preferred.

To avoid semantically equivalent concepts, product strength for metric units are normalized as follows:

• • Use milligram if value is <1000; if > then convert to gram
  • Use microgram if value is <1000; if > then convert to milligram
  • Use nanogram if value is <1000; if > then convert to microgram
    
  • Use picogram if value is <1000; if > then convert to nanogram

To avoid semantically equivalent concepts, product strength for units are normalized as follows:

• • Use million unit if value is >1000000 unit

The following units are not allowed unless specifically noted as an exception:

• • 408165007 |Mega u (qualifier value)|

Repeating decimals are rounded to three decimal places (with 5 and above rounded up and 4 and below rounded down).

Range: <767524001 |Unit of measure (qualifier value)|

Cardinality: 1..1 per relationship group

Concrete Type: Decimal

Range: >#0..

Cardinality: 1..1 per relationship group

For this pattern, the attribute value must be 1.

Note: the denominator strength value is required for concepts in the International Release even though the value = 1, because including denominators for only some concepts negatively affects the classification results.
