List of ingredients and excipients . Note Within the file of ingredient substances will be entries relating to the following:1) Complete substances which act as actual ingredients of medicinal products. For example: heparin sodium or cyclizine lactate (as distinct from heparin and cyclizine). This class of substances may or may not be a salt or other type of derivative.- A VTM cannot exist unless it is linked to a VMP Name The current name in short and f ull f orms VMP_Ingredient Links VMP to the set of active ingredients common to the AMPs linked to the VMP VMP_VTM Links a set of VMPs to a VTM A VMP that is a drug may not be linked to a VTM or it may be linked to one VTM. Each VTM must be attached to one or more VMPs DoseForm Dictionary of terms for the physical conformation of the drug as normally dispensed. A Dose Form may be orphaned f rom any VMP Name A description of the dose f orm. V MP VMP_Form Links a VMP to its dose form. Ev ery VMP that is a drug has exactly one dose f orm. A dose f orm may not be linked to a VMP or it may be linked to one or many A VMP is the conceptual representation of one or more clinically equivalent Actual Medicinal Products the purpose of which is to support the representation of the fundamental reality of the concept. Its core description requires product name, strength and dosage form, but is devoid of explicit or implicit information attributable to manufacturer or pack. 2) Base substances which may or may not be available as actual ingredients. For example, heparin or cyclizine. For each link the quantity of the ingredient or of its base is stored. An ingredient may be orphaned f rom any VMP or AMP or f rom another parent or base ingredient. A VMP may hav e no ingredients attached or it may hav e one or more. Name Name of the ingredient - no history or short f orms An ingredient may not be be attached to any VMP or it may be attached to one or more. Base Ingredient For salts etc a recursiv e pointer to the base ingredient. Strength An indication of the quantity of the ingredient in the product AMP_Ingredient Links AMPs to ingredients marked as “Interesting Excipients”. The quantity of ingredient is not stored. An AMP may be linked to no ingredients or to one or more. AMP An ingredient may not be linked to any AMP or it may be linked to one or more. An AMP is the representation of a single unit dose of a medicinal product that is (or has been) made or marketed by a specific manufacturer or supplier. Its core description requires product name, strength, dosage form and manufacturer, but is devoid of explicit information attributable to pack size. Strength Basis An indication of whether the strength ref ers to the ingredient or its base The unit dose is the smallest single entity of the product that can be physically handled with the following defined deviations: Continuous liquids excluding ey e-drops: where the unit dose is expressed in terms of the accepted normal sub-unit used as the basis of administration Continuous solids: where the unit dose is expressed in terms of the accepted normal sub-unit used as the basis of administration A VMP cannot exist unless it is linked to one or more AMPs and to one or more VMPPs Name The current name in f ull and short Semantic Normal Form together with the of f icial source of the name, a prev ious name and reasons f or change HideName If this f lag is set the name is hidden f rom v iew Continuous semi-solids and ey e-drops: where a consistent, physically measurable unit or sub-unit cannot be defined and which is therefore not instantiated. AMP_VMP Links a set of AMPs to their corresponding VMP An AMP must hav e a VMP but only one VMP A VMP must be linked to at least one AMP and can be linked to sev eral AMPs An AMP cannot exist unless it is linked to one or more AMPPs Name The current name in f ull and short Semantic Normal Form, a prev ious v alue and reason f or change. Each f lav our of a AMP has a separate entry . Prescribability Indicates if product should not be prescribed by VMP Availability The licence and “specials” status. Freeness A set of f lags indicating if VMP is sugar f ree, CFC f ree etc. Regulation VMP_Route Inf ormation on regulatory restrictions and rules about the product such as Controlled Links VMP to the set of licensed routes Drug Schedule common to the AMPs linked to the VMP. Component Flag A VMP may hav e no routes linked, or it Indicates if the product is normal, a compound product or a constituent product. may be linked to one o r more routes. VMPP_VMP A route may not be linked to any VMP or it may be linked to one or more VMPs A VMPP is linked to one and only one VMP Route A licensed route of administration of a medicinal product. A route may be orphaned from any VMP or AMP. Name Description of the route of administration AMP_Route Regulation Inf ormation on reglatory restrictions and rules about the product such as CSM notif ication. Links an AMP to the set of routes that have been licensed for the product. Reimbursement Inf ormation on reimbursement An AMP may hav e no linked Routes or it may hav e one or more routes. Component Flag Indicates if the product is normal, a compound product or a constituent product. A route may not be linked to any AMP or it may be linked to one or more AMPs AMPP_AMP A VMP must hav e one or more VMPPs Links a set of AMPPs to their “parent” AMP. Each AMPP must link to one and only one AMP. Each AMP must hav e one or more AMPPs AMP P VMPP An AMPP is the representation of each and every saleable/available pack (container of dose units) of an AMP, in terms of description of quantity, of how many 'dose units' of the AMP (or weight, for solids and semi-solids) are present in the pack. A VMPP is the conceptual representation of each and every AMPP that exists for the linked AMPs. This includes a conceptual representation of AMPPs that exist to represent the components of a compound AMPP. AMPP_VMPP A VMPP cannot exist unless it is linked to one or more AMPPs and to a VMP Links a set of AMPPs to the corresponding VMPP Name A description of the pack in f ull and shortened Semantic Normal Forms. Each AMPP must hav e one and only one VMPP Size The size of the pack is described in quantity and units. Reimbursement Inf ormation on reimbursement including “of f icial” reimbursement price where it exists. Component Flag Indicates if the pack is normal, a compound pack or a constituent pack. Each VMPP may be linked to one or more AMPPs An AMPP may also be the representation of the number of “dose units” of an AMP present as a constituent of a compound pack. This constituent pack may exist only in a conceptual form or it may also be a saleable/available AMPP. An AMPP cannot exist without a parent AMP Name The current name in f ull and short Semantic Normal Form. Availability The licence and “specials” status. Regulation Inf ormation on regulatory restrictions and rules about the product such as Legal Category , restrictiv e f ormularies, allowed prescription f orms etc. Reimbursement Inf ormation on reimbursement including indicativ e price ChildVMPP_ParentVMPP Component Flag Indicates if the pack is normal, a compound pack or a constituent pack.

All rights reserved AMP_Suppliers Links a set of AMPs to the company that supplies them. Each AMP is supplied by one and only one supplier. A Supplier may not hav e any AMPs or it may hav e one or more products. Suppliers A list of Suppliers of medicinal products. The name used will be that which appears on the product package and may be a manufacturer, a wholesaler or a marketing agent.
