Question

When the doctor mentions od for medication what does it indicate?

Answer 1

When you get a new prescription from your doctor, you may not be able to decipher what is written on it. Many people blame this on the fact that physicians are notorious for poor handwriting. In most cases, however, you wouldn't be able to read it anyway because doctors use Latin abbreviations and medical terminology on prescriptions that are not decipherable by the general public. This can make reading a prescription very difficult, but it isn't impossible.
