Existing patient comorbidities can be added using the available check-boxes as presented in Figure 2.
Social History parameters can be added in the same way.

Allergies
On the right side of Comorbidities & Allergies tab you can see the patient's Allergies which are divided into two tables:
- Drug Allergies: presenting information about the patient's allergies to drugs
- No Drug Allergies: presenting information about the patient's allergies to food or any other substance besides drugs
For both tables the following information is presented:
- Allergy: The type of allergy
- Reaction: The patient's reaction provoked by the drug/food/substance to which the patient is allergic
- Agent: The name or category of the drug / food / substance that the patient is allergic to
- Severity: The severity level of the patient's specific allergy

To add a new Drug allergy, you must click the Add button on the top left of the table. Then a modal (pop-up) windows will be presented to fill in the available values and then click the Save button to add the allergy. The same process stands for adding a new No drug allergy. |
