Subject: p.r.n. at beginning of sentence
I type on a verbatim account. In the medication list when they dictate p.r.n. Tylenol, for example, I have been typing P.R.N. Tylenol. I cannot verify this in the BOS. Many people type P.r.n. Tylenol, which I think is not proper. What do you think is correct? Thanks.

How do you write pH at the beginning of a sentence?
Subject: How do you write pH at the beginning of a sentence?
I have a doctor who says, "pH is within normal limits." I've been adding the word "the" before pH just because I don't know if it's supposed to be capitalized or not at the start of a sentence. Yeah, I know, he's not being gramatically correct, but verbatim, you know.
Thanks!
