A list of medication data frames of 5 different categories:

  • rx_ingr: Ingredient Name

  • rx_pingr: Precise Ingredient Name

  • rx_mingr: Multiple Ingredients Name

  • rx_bn (BN): Brand Name

  • rx_estuse: Estimated Use Category

rx_config is a tibble with configuration settings for medication score calculations.

Columns in rx_config:

  • med_type: character, medication type, either "otc" (over-the-counter) or "rx" (prescription).

  • idx: character, index number as a string with leading zeros.

  • catg: character, category of medication mapping, one of categories from rx_map.

  • table_name: character, table name for the score variable.

  • col_add: character, column name for additional filtering (if any) with values "1" (yes) or "0" (no) or NA.

  • col_summary1: character, primary column name in the data frame containing medication RxCUI.

  • use_col_add1: logical, whether to apply col_add filtering when col_summary1 has data.

  • col_summary2: character, secondary column name in the data frame containing medication RxCUI; used when col_summary1 is NA.

  • use_col_add2: logical, whether to apply col_add filtering when col_summary2 has data.

  • name: character, name of the new column to be created in the summary score.

Selection rule for RxCUI source columns:

  • Use col_summary1 first when it has data.

  • Otherwise, use col_summary2.

  • Apply col_add only when the corresponding use_col_add* flag is TRUE and the selected summary column has data.

Columns in rx_config_estuse_flags:

  • time_point: character, time point of the medication data, "1yr", or "2wk" or "24hr".

  • idx: character, index number as a string without leading zeros.

  • table_name: character, table name for the score variable.
