Description
Find out from the authors of RxNorm if the FHIR Guidance on the display name needs to be updated in the FHIR Standard, and update if needed.
https://www.hl7.org/fhir/rxnorm.html#4.3.2.3
Currently the "Correct RxNorm Display" states Semantic Clinical Drug (SCD) and Semantic Brand Name (SBD) are the correct names to use. However this does not include Generic Pack (GPCK) or Branded Pack (BPCK) that includes packs of medication (e.g. differing strengths like Ortho-Novum is commonly prescribed)
