The Adverse Reaction Tracking (ART) package will point to the National Drug
(50.6) file.

The ART package will do a direct global read of the VA DRUG CLASSIFICATION (3)
field of the DOSAGE FORM subfield (2) multiple of the NATIONAL DRUG (50.6)
file to get all the VA Drug Classes for an entry, e.g.,
D0=$O(^PSNDF(DA,2,D0)) ;loop through DOSAGE FORM subfield
Drug Class=$P(^PSNDF(DA,2,D0,0),"^",3)

The ART package can loop through the "B" and "T" cross-references. The "T"
cross-reference is on the TRADE NAME field which is field #2 on the subfile
50.67.
