The Medication Type value set may be used to classify the nature of properties defined by the code e.g. branded product with no strength or form. This allows the distinction between codes provided containing container, pack, strength and form explicitly especially where terminologies supplied are unknown or terminology services are unavailable.

### Expansion

ValueSet

Expansion performed internally based on codesystem Medication Type v5.1.0-preview (CodeSystem)

This value set contains 11 concepts

Code | System | Display (en-AU) | Definition
UPD | http://terminology.hl7.org.au/CodeSystem/medication-type |  | Unbranded product with no strengths or form. (For AMT this is equivalent to the MP - Medicinal Product concept)
UPDS | http://terminology.hl7.org.au/CodeSystem/medication-type |  | Unbranded product with strengths but no form.
UPDF | http://terminology.hl7.org.au/CodeSystem/medication-type |  | Unbranded product with form but no strengths.
UPDSF | http://terminology.hl7.org.au/CodeSystem/medication-type |  | Unbranded product with strengths and form. (For AMT this is equivalent to the MPUU - Medicinal Product Unit of Use concept)
UPG | http://terminology.hl7.org.au/CodeSystem/medication-type |  | Unbranded package with no container. (For AMT this is equivalent to the MPP - Medicinal Product Pack concept)
BPD | http://terminology.hl7.org.au/CodeSystem/medication-type |  | Branded product with no strengths or form. (For AMT this is equivalent to the TP - Trade Product concept)
BPDS | http://terminology.hl7.org.au/CodeSystem/medication-type |  | Branded product with strengths but no form

Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:

Level | A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies
System | The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere)
Code | The code (used as the code in the resource instance)
Display | The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application
Definition | An explanation of the meaning of the concept
Comments | Additional notes about how to use the code
