Subject: regarding as-needed and over-the-counter

Are as-needed and over-the-counter ALWAYS capitalized in reports?  Is this per the BOS?  Can't find it and new QA is hyphenating them anywhere and everywhere used.

The pharmacist confirmed and told me how to spell it. I asked her if it was capped, and she said, "I imagine so...it's a medicine."

This is what I did when something like this comes up. I know they want you to use the slightest amount possible, and usually never prescribe more than a small tube at a time. This is a very huge amount. I find pharmacists usually are very helpful if you don't ask them more than a few times a year. I would rather do this than say "a pound," just picture it in your head - that's a lot.

dictation:  I inquired with the respiratory therapist to see if they had Advair, which they did not.  We did not have it in our s/l Pixus.  I can find reference to some sort of automated pharmacy something but do not know if it is capitalized, all caps, initial cap.  Anyone heard of this before?  Thanks a lot.
