TALLman + CDC/NIOSH Update 2023.02

Don Lawson -

TALLman

MILT Update 4013 added a new feature that checks entered text against the FDA and ISMP Lists of Look-Alike Drug Names with Recommended Tall Man (Mixed Case) Letters. If a match is found, MILT suggests the recommended formatting ( i.e. buPROPion and busPIRone instead of BUPROPION and BUSPIRONE.) This feature is provided for informational purposes only. It is not provided as, or intended to be, a substitute for expert pharmacological knowledge.

Update 2023.02 replaces the list with the current recommendations from the FDA and the ISMP.
