This lookup table is used in the final stage of standardising dosage text
and extracting structured information. It is used after multiwords
but instead of replacing a phrase, it extracts components of the dose.
The rules in this table are applied one after the other in ascending order of
the order column.
data(patterns)
A data frame with observations on the following 15 variables.
wordscharacter; pattern phrase
