## Resource Profile: Medication Dispense DE ( Abstract )

Official URL: http://ig.fhir.de/igs/medication/StructureDefinition/MedicationDispenseDE | Version: 1.1.0
Active as of 2026-07-06 | Computable Name: MedicationDispenseDE

Dieses Profil dient ausschließlich der Validierung des Implementation Guides auf DosageDE-Ebene (u. a. der Warnungs-Beispiele, die im dgMP-Profil als Fehler modelliert sind) und ist nicht für den produktiven Einsatz gedacht. Stattdessen sollte das jeweils passende Dosage-Profil direkt in das eigene Profil eingebunden werden.

Usages:

- Examples for this Profile: MedicationDispense/Dosage-W-DosageStructuredOrFreeTextWarning-02-of-03 and MedicationDispense/W-FreeTextSingleDosageOnlyWarning-MD
