A medicinal product in the final form which is suitable for administering to a patient (after any mixing of multiple components, dissolution etc. has been performed).

15.5.1 Scope and Usage

For an overview of this resource and others in the Medication Definition domain, also see the module page

A medicinal product may consist of several items, which need to be combined or processed before administration to the patient. This resource covers the ready-for-use administrable product - the components of which are ManufacturedItemDefinition resources. Note that in some cases the administrable product needs no processing or transformation from the manufactured item.

This resource represents the final form of the product; hence it details properties such as the route, that only apply to the final product. It is a definitional resource, representing the properties of a product, but not the actual instance given to someone. When necessary to record that, a Medication resource is used.

This resource corresponds to the Pharmaceutical Product as defined by the ISO IDMP set of standards, see ISO 11615 and ISO 11616 . To better align with the HL7 guidelines for supporting different product concepts and to avoid possible confusion with the resources defined in the Medications module of HL7 FHIR, the concept "Administrable Product" has been adopted for the name of this resource, whereas the terms and definitions of other core resources in the Medication Definition module do correspond directly to the ISO IDMP terms. See also the mapping table for a detailed mapping of this resource to the IDMP Pharmaceutical Product definition.
