I can't say i realized the approach. If all EMR are stored in folders
named A,B,C etc - how this will bypassed? What if replace the Id from
literal to ASCII number of the letter?

You are the boss :-)

Yes, of course. Ideally it should be a table which can store a single
Id of the drug (any entity in general) and an additional column
(properties) of values for each language.

Well, sometimes it is useful to split Id and title even in English - a
single Id can have some different "titles". Drugs is a good example -
Id can be a code from National drug database or something like this
and many names stored as values with no concern about symbols other
than 31<ASCII<127.
