If the dose is expressed as a range, such as 1 - 3, can this be handled with the FHIR MedicationPrescription.dosageInstruction.doseQuantity ?

Thanks for checking - perhaps Pharmacy groups should review. Seems this is an important feature to support. – George Cole Dec 04 '14 at 13:26

Based on the FHIR build for DSTU2, I would say this feedback has been addressed. The doseQuantity element has been replaced by a dose[x] element which can be either a range or a quantity: http://hl7.org/fhir/2015May/medicationprescription-definitions.html#MedicationPrescription.dosageInstruction.dose_x_
