Medical Prescription

Healthcare and Medical

A medical prescription is a written or electronic order from a licensed healthcare provider authorizing a patient to receive a specific medication, dosage, and treatment duration from a pharmacy. Prescriptions are used by physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants to direct drug therapy, and pharmacists rely on them to dispense controlled and non-controlled substances appropriately. Understanding prescription writing, abbreviations, and regulations is a core skill for prescribers and pharmacy staff alike.
