Some granular areas are unfinished in cTakes and in these cases, attributes mentioned are just placeholders for functionality that needs to be filled in. I can't speak specifically to Medication Freq/Dose/Route, but much work is left to be done and contributed throughout the system. Bodysite is another one of these. Or conditionality and confidence. In some cases you will never find them populated, or in others you'll find that values can only be detected in a small number of contexts.
Unless an army of highly qualified developers and informaticists with free time materializes to take it much further, cTakes will always be a work in progress. But many of us have already found it to be highly effective in its current form, and some have made private customizations to suit our own needs.
