Subject: Prescription dose word sig is or zig is
I think I got it. I actually typed in sig 1 q.6h on google and it came up with a website for can you read these prescriptions? onthepharm.net. There are 3 samples given and the 3rd sample has the word sig there. When the samples are unscrambled, the sig is DISPENSE. I still left it blank and will check with QA.
