The SNOMED CT Drug Model for National Extensions describes the classes of concepts required to extend the international SNOMED CT Medicinal Product Specification, to represent a national drug dictionary in a standardized way. This drug extension concept model describes the real or actual medicinal products (sometimes referred to as 'branded products') available for use in a particular country/territory, and how they can be defined using consistent attributes. The purpose of providing a shared concept model for these drug extensions, is to enable comparison and interoperability between drug concepts in different drug dictionaries, thus enabling use cases such as the sharing of medication lists, contraindication checking, and cross-border pharmacovigillence.
