Not easily, but it can say that that may be the case:

        Cannot add duplicate of (maybe inactive) substance intake.

Ah, no, I would leave that up to the discretion of the
(properly informed) provider.

Oh, you mean, even after you restart GNUmed and simply
activate that patient all you see is a white rectangle ?

That would also happen if said patient does not have any
medications to be displayed !  (just like with measurements)

What happens if you click the "include inactive" meds ?

By creating an alias you mean adding another name ?

"Making primary" means "making the added name the active name" ?

If so, no.
