Enhance Medicine Type Dropdown to Include Powder, Drops, and Ointment
Issue Summary
The current frontend medicine form supports only limited medicine types such as tablet, lotion, and syrup. This restricts users from selecting other commonly used medicine forms.
Current Behavior: Only tablet, lotion, and syrup options are available in the dropdown. Expected Behavior: The dropdown should include additional medicine types like powder, drops, and ointment.
Problem Statement
The frontend UI does not support all real-world medicine types, limiting usability.
What is missing? Powder, drops, and ointment options are not available in the medicine type dropdown.
Who is affected? Shopkeepers/admin users entering medicine details.
Impact:
Limited functionality
Poor user experience
Incomplete inventory representation
How to reproduce:
Open Add Medicine form
Click medicine type dropdown
Only 3 options are visible
Proposed Solution
Add new medicine types in frontend dropdown:
Powder
Drops
Ointment
Approach:
Update dropdown options in frontend form
Update any validation logic if required
Ensure selected values are passed in API request
Files to change:
Medicine form component
Constants/types file (if exists)
Dependencies:
Backend should accept these values (no changes required)
