try


www.drugs.com


and a VERY good one that was recommended to me by someone on this board is


www.medicinenet.com and then click on medications.  i also like the way they divide up their alphabet - instead of giving 10 pages of the letter *L*, you can choose *La - Lc* or whatever.

I too love Google but be V_E_R_Y careful w/google
Subject: I too love Google but be V_E_R_Y careful w/google

Google is great for retrieving anything faster than the speed of light *lol* - but if the info comes from a nonverifiable medical website, be very wary.  There are a few I trust only...the NIH for one (Nat'l Institute of Health) and the CDC (Center for Disease Control) and a few others out of the government actually.


As for prescription places, I trusted rx.com for far too long, there are many more reliable drug websites out there... medilexicon.com is a great site and to confirm a proper name of a disease or things like that, there is whonamedit.com which, if you write to the site owner, can be added to (I have done some communication with the site owner so this is 100% true). 


When I first started using google in MT work about 8 years ago as google is not that old, (got online 12 years ago, been an MT since 1980), I had looked up Spironolactone, and Google gave the spelling to me incorrectly and (who knew it was wrong?!?!??) I used their spelling and I was wrong. 


So, only advice is be VERY CAREFUL what YOU CHOOSE to use as far as websites go regarding MT/ME work because in the end you're the one responsible....not google.

Please see dictated history and physical by nurse practitioner, Name Here. I did see and examine this patient with nurse practitioner Last Name Here.


My question is, is nurse practitioner capitalized in either sentence? Since this isn't a verbatim account i know i can insert 'the' before nurse according to the AAMT and call it good but i'd like to know what others think!


caps lock
Subject: caps lock

This happens to me often and at random.  Sometimes if I have my email up at the same time I'm working, if I close it, or exit the web entirely the problem may resolve.  Other times I've exited my word document and the problem resolves...sometimes not.  Sometimes I've had to reboot...sometimes the problem resolves and sometimes not.  It's still a mystery to me.
