RxNorm Mapping Clinical Concepts

The product Pneumovax 23 (NDC 0006-4739) is cross-mapped to the RxNorm terminology system to ensure clinical interoperability. This product is associated with 6 unique RxNorm concepts. By anchoring Merck Sharp & Dohme Llc's product data to these standardized identifiers, healthcare systems can maintain accurate medication records, safely automate e-prescribing, and streamline pharmacy workflows.

The following clinical concept cards detail the semantic term types (TTY), prescribable names, and synonymous clinical strings as defined by the National Library of Medicine (NLM).
