Alphabetize the medication report list to help me compare to the list I get from the hospital.

Sweet Evelyn from Jean's Daughterhood Circle mentioned that she has noticed the med list she gets from the hospital is alphabetized. If we could alphabetize or give option to on Primary Record's Report for the Medication List, it would help her compare the two lists to understand what is new and what old!

We recently released sorting controls for list items like Medications. You can find the button next to the filter and search at the top of profile item lists.

Sorting is a great idea for all our lists of resources.

Jim McIntosh: Per Evelyn, she also shared "the challenge of generic and "trade" names of drugs. She shared it took a nurse nearly a half an hour to make sure his list is correct. I often had to google it because I had it as a different name on my list.
So now what I do is include both names. My local hospital and doctor system alphabetizes by the generic name - so I now have both names
Example: Acetaminophen (also known as Tylenol) dosage, 1X day or prn (as needed)
It helps me tremendously to have both names side by side. Now I also line up his medicine bottles alphabetically by generic name in my bins so I can try to get used to the weird names as I dispense them into his daily pill boxes for morning and night."
