This is more of a limitation of what the RXNORM UMLS dictionary provides (http://rxnav.nlm.nih.gov/). They do provide tools such as RxNav which allows querying medications to see what is available. Thanks, ~Sean
From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Chase Master Sent: Wednesday, September 11, 2013 10:12 AM To: [email protected] Subject: DrugNER annotation Hi, I'm trying to figure out why the DrugNER module excludes NACL or NACL 0.9% from the medication mentions. I don't see it on the exclude list (and even so I've commented out most of the excludes in dictionaries/dictionary/excludeList for now). Is it because NACL needs to be mixed with something else to be considered a medication? Is there a way to look at what's included in GAZ_RXNORM? Thanks
