I believe that the first iteration of medication handling
should not concern itself with prescription matters. If,
however, elevating the *printout* to the level of a possible
prescription template is nothing more than adding an
innocent fill-in-manually field then that shouldn't be the
world's end. The layout of the printouts isn't going to be
hardcoded anyway so people can edit their own copy as they
see fit.
