  4. Change: Expanded Medications Flexibility More Medication Choices Med List Customized by Age Med and Dosage Unlinked To increase the chance that the medication you want is preset in the Plan, the Controller Medication dropdowns show more entries than ever before! To add flexibility to the medication choices, the dosage and medication names are separate items. With the number of meds and dosage possibilities, this reduces the amount of time you spend scrolling through the lists. To reduce the time spent in the Controller Medication dropdowns, the contents of the lists change to contain only meds typically given to patients of the age group (Younger than 6, 6 to 12 years, Adult). Of course, the age can be overridden to see meds for another age group or to see all medications available. It’s your choice! 3 2 1 Click

  5. Changes: Other Medication Changes Timing of the Quick Relief Med Dosages for Poor Response can cover either a certain number of minutes per hour or hours for a number of days. Both can be used, or both can be removed from the Plan. It’s your choice! Greater Control over Quick Relief Medication Dosages! The Oral Steroid can include the dosage in both milliliters and milligrams. The patients no longer has to do the conversion. The volume can be directly entered or can be computed using the Pediatric Dosage Volume formula automatically. Oral Steroid Can Include Both Volume and Weight! Should you choose not to include either an Inhaled or Oral Steroid, you can remove them from the Plan completely. Again, it’s your choice! Remove Inhaled and Oral Steroid Entries! Click
