What is a non-current term?

A non-current term is a term that you can no longer use for coding, but is retained in the Oracle Argus Safety database for historical data retrieval. A coding term can become non-current if it is vague, ambiguous, outdated, truncated, misspelled, or derived from a terminology that is incompatible with MedDRA.

Non-current terms appear next to an asterisk symbol (*) at the LLT level in the MedDRA coding browser and in the search results list.
