      Description

      At present it is not possible to use 'dose units' e.g 'tablets', 'drops' 'puffs' in DV_QUANTITY which makes it impossible to record medication amounts within a single element i.e needing an element for amount and one for 'units'.

      This seems clumsy for a reference model attuned to clinical care where medication amounts are ubiquitous.

      One solution might be to allow non-UCUM terms as 'units'.
