# Creating CDM object
cdm <- mockCdmFromDataset(datasetName = "GiBleed")

# Creating codelist
codelist <- getDrugIngredientCodes(cdm,
                                   nameStyle = "{concept_name}")

# Add a concept to all the codelists:
codelist$acetaminophen
codelist <- codelist |>
 addConcepts(cdm, concepts = c(1L))
codelist$acetaminophen

# Add a concept to a specific codelist
codelist$amiodarone
codelist <- codelist |>
  addConcepts(cdm, concepts = c(2L), codelistName = "amiodarone")
codelist$amiodarone

# See function: `excludeConcepts()` for details on how to remove specific concepts
