pharm:quantity
PQ1 … 1MThe quantity which specified how many inner packaged content entities are in an outer packaging container entity.

The preferred way is to provide the quantity in a coded form using the @unit and @value attributes.
If no coded information is available and even the use of UCUM annotations is not sufficient and more information is available within the national infrastructure, the originalText element can be used to add additional information:

<hl7:translation>
<hl7:originalText>tablets</hl7:originalText>
</hl7:translation>
To improve understanding for the receiver, the additional information has to be provided in English. 		eHDSdotstent
@unit

3 possible uses for the @unit attribute are allowed:

  1. The preferred situation where value of the unit attibute comes from the eHDSIUnit value set.
  2. A UCUM annotation can be used in the unit attribute. In the case of countable items, the content between curly brackets must be a concept from the eHDSIQuantityUnit value set.
  3. For countable units, the unit attribute can also be set to '1', and the translation element can be used to convey the type of content item.
