        Editing substance intake

it occurs to me that the field label "Notes" attracts the entry of notes that 
the clinician would make for his or herself, whereas I understand the intent of 
this field to hold additional clarifying instructions and/or caveats to the 
patient, and which should or can appear on the printout.

Can I request/suggest that we consider to change this to one of:

        Advice
        Cautions
        Directions
        Fine print 
        Footnotes
        Information
        Precautions
        Rx advice
        Warnings

I favour "Directions" … it is only one character longer than the 
currently-longest field label ("Substance")
