SNOMED International proposal to increase description length limits
This is an update to the post on Delen in January 2025 about a proposal from SNOMED International. The proposal is to increase the maximum length of Fully Specified Name (FSN) and Synonym descriptions from 255 to 4,096 characters.
SNOMED International has published more details about the proposal. You can read these in their PDF document: March 2025 date approval MF BN 20250326 v1.00.pdf.
They've also written a blog post, which is available on the SNOMED International website.
This change will affect UK users who use content from the Medicinal Product Hierarchy in either the SNOMED CT International Edition or the SNOMED CT UK Edition.
It will also affect FSNs created in the SNOMED CT UK Drug Extension.
The proposal will not affect Preferred Terms (PTs) in the SNOMED CT UK Drug Extension or the NHS Dictionary of Medicines and Devices (dm+d). We're not planning any changes to the dm+d as a result of this proposal.
SNOMED International has postponed the proposed implementation date to July 2026. This gives users more time to prepare. The change will take effect in the October 2026 UK release.
If you need more time to prepare or have questions, email information.standards@nhs.net by 29 April 2025.

We want your views on changes to the SNOMED CT UK Drug Extension model
As part of the UK Medicines Terminology Futures work, we're planning to update the SNOMED CT UK Drug Extension model to align with the SNOMED International model for national drug extensions.
If you use the SNOMED CT UK Drug Extension, we'd like to hear from you.
Your feedback will help us understand:
- the potential impact of the proposed changes
- how much time users may need to prepare
- how we can work together to support the transition
You can find more details on the Updating the SNOMED CT UK Drug Extension Model page.
Please complete our short survey by 5pm on Tuesday 22 April 2025.
If you have any problems with the survey or want to discuss this work, email us at nhsdigital.ukmeds@nhs.net.
