Subject: Wait...! apparently my post did not post

I would do 60%. I have several doctors that will say 60 (as in ) 6-0. Clarifying the numbers so you don't put 16. They do 50, 5-0 so you don't put 15 because they sound close. It just sounds like sixty-six-zero. Put what you feel is right but I would be from experienc it is 60%

If there's no dosage I'd listen and see if he's whispering some word between We and Will, such as "give" or "prescribe". Sorry I can't be of more help.

Doctor dictates the patient takes " Patient has been on a low dose of Premarin of 0.625 mg a day, alternating every other day with 0.312 mg." 


He says 0.3 one two.  How do I write this? 


I think the dose is 0.3 mg 12 months?

PG or p.g. for medication dosage?
Subject: PG or p.g. for medication dosage?

I have a doctor who is dictating every oral medication with a PG in it, e.g. Zantac 150 mg "PG" q.8 h.  I have never heard of PG or p.g.  The patient does have a G-tube, so the only meaning I can think of is "per G-tube," but again, don't think this is a valid term.

Fosamax dosage-sent to QA
Subject: Fosamax dosage-sent to QA

I sent a note to my supervisor about the doc saying Fosamax 70 mg daily, not weekly, after  I sent it to QA and the QA person left it daily.  


THIS IS FROM MY SUPERVISOR:


I listened to the report and I heard daily--not weekly. It also can be given in a 70 mg dosage.


So, it did me no good to send it to QA or to my supervisor.  I found it weekly, but not daily.  I asked her to send me where she found it 70 mg daily, because when I do a search, nothing comes up for me.  If I am wrong, I am sorry for blowing off steam, but if I am right-- YEA ME!!!
