How does one go about transcribing Diovan HCT when the drug is a combination of valsartan and hydrochlorothiazide. Appendix B of the BOS states that the meaning of HCT is hydrocortisone and HCTZ is hydrochlorothiazide and to spell out both HCT and HCTZ. I trust this is the correct board to ask this question. I'm really getting myself confused with this particular drug combination!  in advance!

Diovan HCT dosage
Subject: Diovan HCT dosage
The doc is saying the pt is on 320/50. The highest I can find is 320/25, although I did get google hits with patients talking about being on 320/50. Can anyone verify this?
Under meds, doctor says post Diovan. Is this a term that is used? Haven't heard of it. Thanks.
