Use the following pattern for the FSN; align naming and case sensitivity with the FSN for the concepts that are selected as the attribute values, excluding the semantic tag. For multiple intended sites, the sites must be in alphabetical order and separated by the word “or”.

• <Dose form release characteristic FSN> <Dose form intended site FSN> <Basic dose form> (dose form)

Example:

• Conventional release oral capsule (dose form)
• Conventional release oral suspension (dose form)
  
• Prolonged-release oral capsule (dose form)
• Conventional release and prolonged-release oral tablet (dose form)
• Conventional release cutaneous cream (dose form)
  
• Conventional release vaginal ointment (dose form)
  
• Gastro-resistant oral suspension (dose form)
  

Use the following pattern for the PT; align naming and case sensitivity with the PT for the concepts that are selected as the attribute values, excluding the semantic tag. For multiple intended sites, the sites must be in alphabetical order and separated by the word “or”. Exclude <Dose form release characteristic> when = 736849007 |Conventional release (release characteristic)|.

• <Dose form release characteristic FSN> <Dose form intended site FSN> <Basic dose form>

Example:

• Oral capsule
• Oral suspension
• Prolonged-release oral capsule
• Conventional release and prolonged-release oral tablet
• Cutaneous cream
• Vaginal ointment
• Gastro-resistant oral suspension

A synonym matching the FSN is required; other synonyms are not allowed unless explicitly identified as an exception in the Editorial Guidelines.

Exceptions:

• Synonyms with eye instead of ocular, ear instead of otic, or nose instead of nasal may be created.
