Removing MedDRA Non-Current Terms
Currently, the MedDRA non-current terms are not being filtered out of the dictionary even though the flag column can be specified within the dictionary setup. This will be addressed in an upcoming release, but for now, the non-current terms must be removed when building the MedDRA dictionary.
To do this, the following code snippets can be added to the end of the dictionary scripts:
MedDRA.sql (SQL Server script)
MedDRA.sas (SAS System Script)
