======================================

We use FirstDataBank, but I too think that as a user I should be able to
suppress certain interactions.
I believe that the problem lies with the way the FSV's and Meditech classify
interactions. With FDB, the severity level is often set by how strong the
evidence to support the interaction is rather than how severe the effects of
an interaction would be. All of this really comes into play when we talk
about POM, because it has been shown in the literature that physicians (and
other health care workers) tend to ignore messages when they are bombarded
with them and when the majority are not important.
