>>VANCOMYCIN 1 GM - Route: INTRAVENOUS @ 08:45 By: GAM

>>ANCEF  2 GRAMS - Route: INTRAVENOUS @ 09:25 By: DR. HORNUNG

>>Basically, I need 4 separate elements, so for the first one it would be
>>Drug Name: VANCOMYCIN
>>Route: INTRAVENOUS
>>Time: 08:45
>>Give By: GAM

>>The only logic I can't really grasp is getting the Drug Name without the amount. The rest I have definable points I can utilize to include with the CHARINDEX feature. But since some of the drug names have an amount and some don't I'm stumped on that part.

>If the amount following the drag name always starts with a number, then it's easy enough. Search for the first digit after in the Drag Name.
