DRUG ELUDING?DRUG ELUTING?
Okay...sock it to me..when I was even newer than I am now, I wrote "drug alluding stent." QA sent a correction saying "drug eluding stent." NOW, I see on Google, "drug eluting stent." SOoooo, which is it, or are they both correct? Thanks ahead of time.
It is drug-eluting, so there QA!!!
Yes, drug-eluting...
The company I work for gives daily info e-mails and actually got one on this a few months ago - is common to transcribe eluding or alluding if you haven't heard it before. 
Drug-Eluting
As they say on "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire", drug-eluting............FINAL ANSWER!!! 
Drug-eluting stents. Link inside. sm.
It is hyphenated. Check out Boston Scientific's site at the link below for some of their products. One is as follows: TAXUS® Express²™ paclitaxel-eluting coronary stent system.
s/l Seifer stent, Sifer stent, can't reference!

in-stent versus end-stent restenosis
Do these terms mean the same thing or each means something different? How can you tell if the doc means end or in? Thanks
-ly words are not hyphenated. nm

No more hyphenated follow-up. sm
#1. Follow up (verb): I will follow up with the patient next week.
#2. Followup (noun or adjective): The patient will come in for a followup next week, or the patient will come in for a followup examination next week.
Prefixes are not normally hyphenated...sm
...except in certain circumstances. See BOS 3rd ed., pp 134-135.
MS Word's "rules" are not reliable nor authoritative.
Word combinations that modify are hyphenated.
I think of it as words that describe or paint a clearer picture. Things like red-hot poker, or flea-bitten mongrel. Does that help?
Good drug book vs. internet drug sites
I need to buy a new drug book. At a prior job, about a year ago, one of the supervisors told me she used the internet exclusively. What's the consensus and if you prefer the internet, which site or sites do you like. Thanks in advance.

Cipher stent
I have found it on the internet as such--Cipher stent
Cypher stent
You are so right, I apologize for the incorrect information.
in-stent restenosis
means that a stent has been placed in the artery, and has clogged off again. Never heard of end-stent, so I am thinking it is just slurred sounds for in-stent.
In-stent restenosis
I have always typed "in-stent" for all heart doctors at my hospital. Also found on Google.
It's ELUTING. Your QA person is incorrect (tsk tsk). nm

that was supposed to be eluding vs. eluting
nevermind! TGIF!

best drug help website
Would be interested which is your fave drug reference source on the web for spellings, dosages, etc. - preferably one that doesn't result in tons of spam for illegal drug purchases - is there such a place?
Drug Screens
You are right! I would not be offended if asked to take a drug test - nothing to hide. I do not want someone having privy to my personal info who is on drugs and acting irresponsible. Had my identity stolen once, it is a nightmare to get straightened out. Don't want my SS# and other private info going to other countries either.

drug reference
I always use Drugs@FDA. I have it in my favorites: http://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cder/drugsatfda/
You can look up drug names by using as few as three letters. I find it's quick and efficient, and it's free, and because it's the FDA it's the latest info on drugs.
Help on drug board if you have second :O)
thanks.
Get a drug that you can sue the manufacturer for later. sm
Get cured now, get rich later. Check out the lawyers' ads on late night TV. "Did you take this drug? Are you still alive, just barely? Then call this toll free number now before you die so we can collect a settlement for you." Good luck.
Need help on drug board, please. TIA :)
