------------------------------------------

             Summary: parsing of medication strength does not verify a number was discovered (strength value includes both the dosage and strength value in some cases)
                 Key: CTAKES-178
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CTAKES-178
             Project: cTAKES
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: ctakes-drug-ner
    Affects Versions: 3.0-incubating, 3.1-incubating
            Reporter: James Joseph Masanz
            Assignee: James Joseph Masanz
             Fix For: 3.1-incubating



for the text "aspirin 2 325mg tablet prn by mouth", a 
org.apache.ctakes.typesystem.type.refsem.MedicationStrength annotation is created with 
number = "2 325"
rather than with 
number = "325"
The 2 should be a dosage (MedicationDosage.value)

FYI, I don't know how prevalent that pattern is so I don't know how high a priority this might be.
