I will let others help you on the dosages front.
Quick hint1: there is not Injectible Clarithromycin in the US. You
should match Clarithromycin to Azithromycin Injectible and go from
here. The dosage form comes from the one from the National Drug File
the drug is matched to, not the original drug, unless it is unmatched.
But a couple of things scream for a comment:
DO NOT USE FILEMAN TO EDIT ORDERABLE ITEMS. EVER! YES, ALL CAPS IS INTENDED!
They can only be changed from the appropriate menu options. In
general, if you modify a user-land item using Fileman (all of CPRS
set-up belongs in User-land, not programmer/sys admin land), you
should stop and ask yourself: how come I am doing that? All packages
are designed to maintain their files from within the package.
Exceptions are rare. The manual will tell you if you have to change
something through Fileman. A word of advice: always log-in as a user
with limited privileges when working with the system. (Limited
Priviliges = minimum keys to get job done + no fileman access codes).
This will prevent you from doing bad things to the system, like
editing the Orderable Item file.
CPRS has a very strange algorithm for updating the Orderable Items.
When you make a change to the Pharmacy Orderable Item file through
Drug Enter/Edit or Edit Orderable Item, it updates the Orderable Item
List immediately via a call to an entry to the protocol file. However,
CPRS DOES NOT look at the Orderable Item file. It looks at the ORDER
QUICK VIEW file. The orderable item and the order quick view file have
to be kept in sync. That's done using taskman when the user browses
the orderable items from CPRS. Which means, after you make the change,
the first time you look, you won't find the change made. Wait a few
moments (depending on how long taskman takes) and open it again. Now
you will find the drug you added.
FYI: None of your changes to the Orderable Item file through Fileman
made any difference. What you saw was an artifact of the strange way
that CPRS updates ORDER QUICK VIEW file.
