Dosepak vs. dose pack
Subject: Dosepak vs. dose pack
 I know this has been asked 100 times, but i would like some clarification advise from anyone willing to give it!! Medrol Dosepak is a brand name and should be typed as such; however, i see so many times MTs typing Dosepak on things like prednisone and Sterapred. I cannot verify that anything other than Medrol should be Dosepak but is there some sort of unwritten rule i missed??? Help!! Any and all advise is appreciated.

Subject: Pack-a-day smoker versus pack-per-day smoker.
It would be either "He is a two-pack-a-day smoker" or "He is a two-pack-per-day smoker.
If doc dictates "a" use that; if "per" go with that. That's what I do anyway. It makes life simpler that way. :)
