                Others are &quot;Earl of&quot; or &quot;His Majesty King of...&quot; etc.  Rarely used
               nowadays, but some systems do keep track of this.

                           Description: Medication Name Parts are a means of specifying
               a range of acceptable &quot;official&quot; forms of the name of a product.  They are used
               as patterns against which input name strings may be matched for automatic identification
               of products from input text reports.   While they cover the concepts held under &quot;doseForm&quot;
               or &quot;route&quot; or &quot;strength&quot; the name parts are not the same and do not
               fit into a controlled vocabulary in the same way. By specifying up to 8 name parts a much
               larger range of possible names can be generated.
