Very helpful. Thank you. The route of Amlodipine was not mentioned so is it okay if we skip it if route of a certain medicine is not mentioned in the task? 2. There is no start or end date of VTE prophylaxis? Many thanks in anticipation for help

Amlodipine comes only in oral form hence there is no other option but oral.
