checks for
drug-drug and
drug-allergy
interactions to help
meet the
requirements for
meaningful use
(core measure 2).
NOTES • Drug-drug interaction and drug-allergy warnings may not
appear if the medication has a red triangle to the left of its
name; these triangles indicate that the medication was
entered by hand, rather than selected from a list, or was
transferred with a code that the ExamWRITER ePrescribing
interface did not recognize. To receive more conclusive
warning messages, click Manage Medications and reselect
the patient’s other medications or medication allergies from
the medication list.
• Clinical prescription warnings are displayed in red text.
Non-clinical prescription warnings are displayed in blue text.
• If you want to provide a justification for prescribing the
medication notwithstanding the warning, type text into the
text box.
