Ingredients

Section Purpose:

This documentation describes what ingredients are, what properties they have, and how to manage their list in the system. This allows users to efficiently browse, add, and edit ingredients used in formulas.

Each ingredient has the following properties:

  • NDC - the ingredient’s identification code.
  • Trade name - the official name of the product.
  • Label name - the ingredient name printed on labels.
  • Active - information on whether the ingredient is active in the system.
  • Manufacturer - the name of the ingredient manufacturer.
  • Ingredient group - the main group the ingredient belongs to.
  • Alternative ingredient groups - other groups the ingredient may be associated with.
  • (kcal/ml) - energy value in kilocalories per milliliter.
  • Nitrogen (g/ml) - nitrogen content.
  • Na, K, Ca, Mg, PO4, Cl, Acetates - content of individual ions.
  • Osmolarity (mOsm/ml) - osmolarity of the ingredient.
  • AA/N - ratio of amino acids to nitrogen.
  • Specific gravity - density of the ingredient.
  • Amino acids (g/ml) - amino acid content.
  • Fats (g/ml) - fat content.
  • Glucose (g/ml) - glucose content.
  • Protein calories - calories derived from proteins.
  • Non-protein calories - calories derived from non-protein sources.
  • For children - information on whether the ingredient is intended for children.
  • For adults - information on whether the ingredient is intended for adults.
  • Default for group - whether the ingredient is the default in its group.
  • Default for group and manufacturer - whether the ingredient is the default for a given group and manufacturer.

An ingredient can also be cloned - create a new one based on an existing one, transferring all properties.

The system allows importing and exporting ingredients in CSV format directly from the ingredients table.

  • CSV import:
    • Use the “Import” button above the ingredients table.
    • Select a CSV file containing ingredient data conforming to the required template.
    • After confirming the file, new ingredients will be added to the system or updated if they already exist.
  • CSV export:
    • Use the “Export” button above the ingredients table.
    • The system will generate a CSV file containing the current list of ingredients along with their properties.
Who can add and edit ingredients?

Only users with the appropriate permissions (e.g. administrator or pharmacist) can manage ingredients.
