Sorry, parts of my previous reply was incorrect.

I forgot that as of 3.1, the annotations made by the drugner component are
converted into org.apache.ctakes.typesystem.type.textsem.MedicationMention
annotations. So the AggregatePlaintextFastUMLSProcessor is working as
expected -- instead of looking for medications as annotations of type
 org.apache.ctakes.drugner.type.* use org.apache.ctakes.typesystem.
type.textsem.MedicationMention.

As I mentioned before, whether nucleotide is classified as a medication
depends on the dictionary used. It appears nucleotide is not within the
default dictionary as a medication. However I do see annotations being
created for glycine and aspartic acid.

org.apache.ctakes.typesystem.type.textsem.MedicationMention is found under
org.apache.ctakes.typesystem.type.textsem.EventMention which is found under
org.apache.ctakes.typesystem.type.textsem.IdentifiedAnnotation

To get attributes such as strength, dose, etc, a MedicationMention
annotation has attributes such as medicationStrength which can reference an
annotation of type MedicationStrengthModifier
