      Comment:

      It is unclear whether this resource is intended to support (1) creation of medication catalogue/drug formulary, or (2) for creating medication knowledge base

      As as, this resource is a mix-bag and serves both purposes very poorly

      If it is intended for (2), the structure definition needs to be redesigned to include contents such as:

      • name of medication
      • composition and pharmaceutical form
      • clinical features including:
      • Therapeutic indications
      • Dose, preparation, and method of administration
      • Contraindications
      • Special warning and precautions for use
      • Adverse effects
      • Dose range and overdose
      • Pharmacological properties, including:
      • Pharmacodynamic properties
      • Pharmacokinetic properties
      • Clinical trials
      • Pharmaceutical properties, including:
      • List of excipients
      • Incompatibilities
      • Special precautions for storage and disposal
