Method 2a - Enter the Allergy by the Chemical or Generic Name
If a Generic Name is entered, and in the above screen 'By Generic name' is selected, then all products containing that generic drug will trigger an alert. This will not however trigger warnings from other medications of the same class.
For example, entering an allergy to Amoxycillin will not trigger a warning if Phenoxymethylpenicillin is subsequently prescribed.
