Why can doctors' prescriptions be easily recognized by people who don't understand the pharmacy?

For those who go to the hospital to see a doctor, sometimes after the doctor's prescription is not flying? For ordinary people, it may be a heavenly book, but why can the druggist understand it when he arrives at the drugstore?

in fact, there are many reasons why the patients written by doctors can't understand it. First, there are too many patients that doctors receive, so they can only write 'cursive' quickly. Second, some doctors deliberately make people can't understand it so as to prevent the outflow of prescriptions. Third, there is a problem with professional terms. Doctors use aliases or common names. It's also normal for many non professionals not to understand it, such as dexamethasone Song, written as DXM, rifampicin RFP, etc., is not clear to non professionals at a glance. For pharmacists, in general, pharmacists are familiar with the drugs in hospital pharmacies. After basically understanding the clinical symptoms, they only need to recognize one or two words to see the name of the drug, and then they can know what kind of drug to prepare. There are also some Chinese herbal medicines, such as eucommia, pinellia and so on, which are hard to be recognized by non professionals.

So, what I want to say is that there is an order of hearing and preaching, and a specialty in the art industry. That's all. As a pharmacist, I think it's only my job to see the prescription, and nothing special. In addition, most of the three-level hospitals are now information-based and modern, and most of the prescriptions have become electronic prescriptions, while the national health and Family Planning Commission has also issued a document requiring that the regular prescriptions should use the international common name, so generally speaking, the "do not understand" prescriptions will gradually disappear, and the information is transparent for the majority of patients.

I have a distant relative who is an old Chinese medicine expert in orthopedics. He once revealed similar problems to me. Let me tell you about this situation.

Frankly speaking, when doctors prescribe prescriptions, they deliberately Scribble and clutter the handwriting. The main purpose is only one, that is, they are afraid that after others see the prescriptions clearly, they will lose the exclusive trade secrets.

Especially for some old Chinese doctors, in order to make a prescription that can cure diseases and has good effect, they often need many tests and improvements. They need to invest a lot of effort and money in the prescription, which can't be seen by people outside our circle.

Although there are many prescriptions handed down from ancient times, with the changes of physical constitution, physiological structure, drug efficacy and individual drug resistance of generations, the prescriptions for treating fracture and sprain 100 years ago, or even 50 years ago, may not have a good effect on modern people.

This requires modern doctors to improve the prescription according to the body function of modern people, either add some medicine to the original prescription, or increase the dosage, or replace some of the original medicine, until the prescription is tested so that patients can use it quickly and effectively. In addition, the best proportion of various drug combinations should be tested when dispensing, and the side effects can be reduced to the lowest after the patient is given the medicine, so as to calculate the success of dispensing.

In addition, most of the current Chinese herbal medicines are planted artificially. Their efficacy is not as good as that of the wild ones, and the effect is not so good when they are used.

My distant relative Wei often buys some Chinese herbal medicines by himself and makes them himself. For example, I often see him bake almonds, sun baked Schisandra, bupleurum and other medicinal materials. He often says that these Chinese medicinal materials made by himself are much better than those distributed by the wholesale company of medicinal materials. The effect of the Chinese medicine prepared by this kind of medicinal materials is better than that of ordinary medicinal materials. Therefore, he only uses these herbs for patients who are very familiar with each other.

Of course, for some effective prescriptions, they have accumulated painstaking efforts and secrets for many years. When prescribing prescriptions, his private heart drives him to write the handwriting deliberately disorderly, so that no one can easily see the secrets inside.
