✨ New in This Release​

Richer medication and indication tags

Touchdose now displays every tag that is relevant to the screen you are on, rather than only a fixed set of tags. This includes a new group of typed tags that can convey clinically meaningful information at a glance — for example that a medication is a controlled drug, that it is subject to a prescribing restriction, which line of therapy an option represents, or that relevant guidance applies.

Tags that apply to a medication are shown next to the medication name, and tags that apply to a particular indication are shown alongside that indication, next to the source. Touchdose no longer decides which tags to show based on their type; the system returns only the tags that are pertinent to each screen, and all of them are displayed. Clicking a tag continues to reveal any additional detail or link exactly as before.

🔧 Maintenance​

Reliability and security improvements

This release includes a range of behind-the-scenes improvements to the SMART-on-FHIR application and RxConnect, including more reliable SMART and CDS Hooks launches, hardened authentication, updated core dependencies, and infrastructure changes to improve performance and resilience.

📘 Documentation​

The Instructions for Use document has been updated to reflect the new tag handling. Highlights:

  • The Tags sections on the Select medication, Select indication, Search by indication, Select dose recommendation and Medication order pages now explain that every tag relevant to the screen is displayed.
  • The guidance now describes where tags appear: tags relevant to the medication are shown next to the medication, and tags relevant to an indication are shown alongside that indication, next to the source.
  • Tag examples have been updated to reflect the new typed tags (such as a controlled drug or a prescribing restriction) in place of the previous fixed set.
