Please check parens detection in drug tool.

This is in regards to the case of not detecting:

Mixed Drug Toxicity(Fentanyl, Cocaine, Xylazine and Gabapentin) where the parens is removed causing the term to become "ToxicityFentanyl" which doesn't match string similarity measures.

Can fix by replacing punctuation with space instead of removing.
