Subject: Allergy Alerts in MedManager: Update in PROD

Due to recent medication safety events following drug allergies being recorded as Intolerances or Side Effects instead of true allergies, Cerner has been updated so that both of these Reaction Types (Intolerance and Side Effect) will display an alert in MedManager at verification.  Please note the Reaction Type will display in the mCDS window to differentiate between each type for evaluation.  Thank you.
