Data Modeling Case Study The following is description by a pharmacy owner: "Jack Smith catches a cold and what he suspects is a flu virus. He makes an appointment with his family doctor who confirm his diagnosis. The doctor prescribes an antibiotic and nasal decongestant tablets. Jack leaves the doctor's office and drives to his local drug store. The pharmacist packages the medication and types the labels for pill bottles. The label includes information about customer, the doctor who prescribe the drug, the drug (e.g., Penicillin), when to take it, and how often, the content of the pill (250 mg), the number of refills, expiration date, and the date of purchase." Please develop a data model for the entities and relationships within the context of pharmacy. Also develop a definition for "prescription". List all your underlying assumptions used in your data models.
