I am working on a Discharge Summary and in the medication list "folic 12.5 one p.o. b.i.d." is listed.  (This is a male pt.)  I can't find 12.5 as a dosage available anywhere and also, isn't "folic" as in folic acid usually for women?  the diagnoses are.... chf, cellulitis, cardiomyopathy and morbid obesity.  I don't see what "folic" would be prescribed for.  Any ideas?  Thanks, this is driving me crazy!

On admission his INR and PTT were elevated.  His hemoglobin and hematocrit were 13.2 and 37.2.  We applied pressure dressing and gave 7 units of fresh frozen plasma with vitamin K.  The bleeding has since stopped overnight and we have *dialyzed him* this morning.  We are sending him home to continue with his outpatient dialysis schedule.


Discharge Summary?
Subject: Discharge Summary?

I'm practicing an assignment for my class and I figured this was the best place to post a question about it.

I know that it's a discharge summary but I'm completely stumped as to the layout. It doesn't seem to fit the layouts in my books so I don't know what I should do. I don't want to get a bad grade on the assignment and would love to get the format right the first time.

If anybody is willing to, I would love to e-mail the file to you so you can possibly give me an idea?
