Chapter05
This document discusses medication orders and administration. It covers the rights of medication administration, interpreting physician orders, medication administration records, and reference materials. Key points include the basic rights being right patient, right drug, right dose, right time, right technique, and right documentation. Physician orders must include patient name, drug, dosage, route, frequency and prescriber information. Medication administration records must match orders and allow documentation of each dose given. Reference materials help ensure safe medication practices.
Basics of Prescription
The document discusses prescriptions and electronic prescribing. It defines a prescription as an order from a medical practitioner for medicine or treatment for a patient. It explains the parts of a prescription including patient information, medication, and instructions. Electronic prescribing allows doctors to transmit prescriptions directly to pharmacies digitally, improving accuracy and reducing errors compared to handwritten prescriptions. While it provides benefits, electronic prescribing also faces challenges such as accidental errors and security issues.

The prescription
A prescription is a written order from a physician directing a pharmacist to dispense medication. There are two types: pre-compounded prescriptions for already prepared drugs, and extemporaneous prescriptions where the pharmacist prepares the medication. A prescription should include the date, prescribing doctor's information, patient information, drug name and dosage, directions, and doctor's signature. Abbreviations are commonly used in prescriptions to save space. Rational prescribing fulfills medical criteria while irrational prescribing inappropriately uses drugs.
prescription, its types and importance
Prescription is a written order from a physician directing a pharmacist to dispense medication. It contains important clinical information like the patient's name, diagnosis, medication, dosage, and instructions. Prescriptions help facilitate communication between the physician, pharmacist, and patient. They are also important legal documents. Errors can occur during prescribing, interpreting, dispensing, or administering due to issues like unclear handwriting, abbreviations, or lack of important details. Minimizing errors requires practices like writing prescriptions slowly and clearly, avoiding abbreviations, and double checking the prescription.

Prescription, Dispensing and Hospital Pharmacy
It is a short and sweet PPT on Prescription, Prescription is an important topic in DISPENSING AND HOSPITAL PHARMACY
Prescription ppt
The document discusses prescriptions, their components, and legality. It notes that a prescription is a medical practitioner's order to a pharmacist to compound and dispense medication for a patient. A prescription typically includes the date, patient information, a symbol indicating it is a prescription, the medication ingredients and quantities, directions for use, and the prescriber's signature, address, and registration number. The main components are the inscription listing the medication and adjuncts and the subscription providing directions. Prescriptions must be filled out correctly and completely to be legal and help identify the intended medication and treatment.
Chap4 calculation
The patient was prescribed medication for 30 days. They returned for a refill after 45 days. To calculate compliance:
Days Supply Provided = 30 days
Days Between Refills = 45 days
Compliance = (Days Between Refills / Days Supply Provided) x 100%
= (45 days / 30 days) x 100%
= 150%
So the percent compliance rate is 150% since they took the medication as prescribed and had medication left over when they returned for their refill.
Prescription writing
Prescriptions must contain specific information like the patient's name and address, prescriber's contact information, medication, dosage, directions, and refills. Latin abbreviations are commonly used. Controlled substances have additional requirements and are classified in Schedules based on their abuse and dependency potential. Prescriptions ensure accurate and safe dispensing of medications, especially controlled drugs.
Prescription of Drugs to Patient
A prescription is a written or verbal order from a licensed medical professional for a medication. Prescriptions have been used since ancient times and Latin was adopted as the standard language. Prescriptions must clearly identify the patient and include details like drug name, dose, frequency, and prescriber information. There are different types of prescriptions for different settings like hospitals, general practice, and private use. Proper prescription writing aims to prevent errors by using unambiguous terminology and formats. Common errors in drug administration must be reported to allow for proper management.
Paper Prescription and E-Prescription
E-prescriptions provide benefits over traditional paper prescriptions by being electronic, secure, and reducing errors. Key points:
1) E-prescriptions are transmitted electronically from doctors to pharmacies, allowing pharmacists more time to prepare medications accurately without issues of illegible handwriting.
2) E-prescriptions integrate with patients' medication histories and insurance information to provide safety checks against drug interactions and inform treatment decisions.
3) Transitioning to e-prescriptions can improve patient safety, reduce prescription errors and time spent on phone calls to pharmacies, while increasing convenience for doctors and patients.
