The current Dentrix program requires the clinician to click onto the "settings" section, enter a medication and then click onto the medication page and pull it from the drop-down box. Other software programs such as Open Dental provide a pre-populated list of medications so the clinician can begin typing the patient's medication and pull it from a list that is already provided. Sometimes a new med needs to be entered and there should be a provision to enter it on the same page without switching back to the "Settings" page.
