...In linguistics, prescription can refer both to the codification and the enforcement of rules governing how a language ought to be used. These rules can cover such topics as standards for spelling and grammar or syntax, or rules for what is deemed socially or politically correct or proper. It includes the mechanisms for establishing and maintaining an interregional language or a standardized spelling system. It can also include declarations of what particular groups consider to be good taste. If these tastes are conservative, prescription may be (or appear to be) resistant to language change. If they are radical, prescription may be productive of neologism. Prescription can also include recommendations for effective language usage. Read full entry

Do what I do then. When I get a script that isn't my usual medication I write on the box what it's for eg. Nausea, bronchitis, etc. That way I know if it there in the medicine cupboard that it was used for what thing. Please remember that if you are on antibiotics you should take the full course (all the tablets) as prescribed. Its also possible to get books which describe what medicines are prescribed for what, their possible side effects and contra-indications. The one I have is called "The Complete Home Guide to Medications" by Dr. Warwick Carter. Its written in easy to read style. |

Description: ususally is what the patient is telling you his symptoms are. Diagnosis: This would be based on the signs (those things that can measured like temperature, heart rate, respiratory rate etc.) and the symptoms (those things that are subjective like pain, hunger, thirst, the things that you can't measure but that the patient tells you). Presription: Depends on what the signs and symptoms reveal and the patients ability to tolerate the prescription, and what will be most beneficial in curing the malady. Action: Would include the prescription, but also course of treatment, additional instructions (no lifting, bed rest, plenty of fluids etc.) and probably a follow-up appointment to determine progress. |
