Add tapering instructions to medication in e-prescribe

When using e-prescribe, allow me to add tapering instructions to medication. For example, a client's dose may be 2x/day for 14 days and then move down to 1x/day for X-many days.

    When prescribing medications that require tapers or titrations, we should be able to combine multiple steps to one prescription. For example: lamotrigine 25mg -1 tab po daily X 14 days (step one) with start & end date, lamotrigine 25mg -2 tabs po daily X 14 days (step two) with start & end date, lamotrigine 100mg -1 tab po daily (final step). In addition to that, I do not see any start date options for new prescriptions to even do this separately.
