obviously I'm tired when I can even spell "right" the right way and typed write.  I think it's time to punch out for the day!  Thanks again for any help!

Adding on to what I said before
Subject: Adding on to what I said before

Before she said "VFP" she listed "clobetasol and fluocinolone topically".  I thought she was moving on to the next thing, but maybe she was referring to those and saying "the (instead of V) FP's or SP's are .05%"  Anyone know what FP or SP would be, it sounds like she could be saying the prescription dose on those topical medications.  It seems to fit anyway.  Any ideas?

Can someone please look up Dobbhoff tube for me and tell me what page it is on and what edition they have of the Stedman's?  That would be Dobbhoff with TWO b's and TWO f's for my purposes, here. I need that particular spelling. 


I would be SO grateful!


(Background - I was on here a while ago asking about this word. Someone was nice enough to answer me with the correct spelling as found in the Stedman's GI/GU.  I used that spelling -- the one above.  QA came after me.  I defended myself by citing Stedman's GI/GU.  QA has asked me for the edition and the page number.  Well, I don't have the durn reference MYSELF, one of you nice people helped me.)  THANKS!

per the Book of Style
Subject: per the Book of Style

Per Book of Style 2 edition page 150:

"When the generic name and brand name of a medication sound alike, use the generic spelling unless it is certain that the brand name is being referenced to."

Therefore, I would use the generic spelling levothyroxine.

For constipation, patient is being prescribed *Senna-lax-S*.  My Quick Look Drug Book does not have it at all.  Google does have it all over.  My Stedman's spellchecker marks it wrong though and wants to change it to Cenalax.  Cenalax does not come up on Google anywhere and asks if I meant 'sennalax' instead.   OY!  Anyone know which is correct?  Is my Stedman's spellchecker wrong-o?
