Hi - I have had this happen before with generics and with Monographs of the 
wrong drug being attached. I have a feeling that it may have something to do
with the way the information loads from the Medispan tapes into Meditech and 
darn if I just didn't find one that really irritates me.
I am looking at Bisacoydal tabs. All that is in the ingredients in the drug 
itself is Bisacoydal. But when I look at the generic Bisacoydal in the generic
dictionary
it has Meperidine, Morphine, Morphine2 and lots of good stuff there and there 
is an F by each one of them. SO I am guessing that if someone orders
bisacoydal on someone and the ingredient allergy MORHINE is on their profile, 
they will get an ALLERGY flag?
On the other hand, I put ampicillin in the generic PENICI10 (Medispan's 
penicillin VK) and if I enter the ingredient allergy ampicillin on a patient I 
can
get flagging against Penicillins with the generic PENICI10 in them at all. We 
are on 5.5 VS1 Magic. This is the first time I noticed this with BISACOYDAL.

Hi all,

Recently I have experienced a problem with our latest FSV (Medi-Span) File. 
Quite a few Generic Names have the Related Ingredient Allergy fields populated
by Medi-Span with incorrect Related Ingredients. For example, Acetaminophen has 
Docusate, Morphine, Ipratroprium, Fish-Derived Products, Guaifenesin,
Codeine, among others.

I reported this to MEDITECH and they asked me to contact Medi-Span. I have not 
received any responses, despite multiple calls/emails. In any case, I called
MEDITECH back a few days later and my Apps Specialist now states that three 
more of her sites are experiencing the same problem.

Is anyone out there in L-Land noticed this issue? Thanks and have a great day.
