Medication dosing
Subject: Medication dosing
If a doctor dictates "Invanz 1 gram q. 24" would you put q.24h.or would you leave it alone. I know for sure she was scheduled for once a day. Is there an industry standard on this particular happening or is it the personal preference of each facility? Thanks!

drug dosing
What should I do when doc dictates drug dose that is not in drug book.
ex. metformin 875 mg
When I look this up it only comes in 500, 850, or 1000. This is the first time, usually it's 500 or 1000. Should I just change it to 850 or leave it for QA?

I hope I don't end up looking like a fool for posting this, but....
I have done more of this docs files that ANYONE elses... and I have never heard her say this before... "one q. day to p.a.p." she says it twice on two different meds. She is always VERY easy to understand. It's definitely not b.i.d. or t.i.d. Does p.a.p. or t.a.p. exist? I have googled all over the place and even had another MT listen to the file. (please don't rake me over the coals... I'm a newbie - haha)
Help? Please? Thank you.
