Is it 4-5 doses or 4 to 5 doses?
Subject: Is it 4-5 doses or 4 to 5 doses?

Quick question; I'm just getting back into the swing of things and I'm realizing my last employer really wasn't a stickler for anything.  Now I'm worried I'm gonna mess up at my new transcription job with something small.


The physician is saying "the patient is on 4 to 5 doses of" whatever drug.  Is it transcribed as 4-5, 4 to 5, four to five...?


Help plz!!
