-ly words are not hyphenated. nm

No more hyphenated follow-up. sm
#1. Follow up (verb): I will follow up with the patient next week.
#2. Followup (noun or adjective): The patient will come in for a followup next week, or the patient will come in for a followup examination next week.
Prefixes are not normally hyphenated...sm
...except in certain circumstances. See BOS 3rd ed., pp 134-135.

MS Word's "rules" are not reliable nor authoritative.
Word combinations that modify are hyphenated.

I think of it as words that describe or paint a clearer picture. Things like red-hot poker, or flea-bitten mongrel. Does that help?


It is drug-eluting, so there QA!!!

Yes, drug-eluting...

The company I work for gives daily info e-mails and actually got one on this a few months ago - is common to transcribe eluding or alluding if you haven't heard it before.

Drug-eluting stents. Link inside. sm.

Okay...sock it to me..when I was even newer than I am now, I wrote "drug alluding stent."  QA sent a correction saying "drug eluding stent."  NOW, I see on Google, "drug eluting stent."  SOoooo, which is it, or are they both correct?  Thanks ahead of time.
