Problem
Part 1
Write a prescription!
• Pretend you are a physician writing a prescription for a patient. The patient is a 21 year old male who had a just root canal. He is experiencing pain which will not go away with over the counter medications. Do your research and prescribe him a medication which will help with pain as well as help him to sleep. Use the sample prescription in the text as a guide. Place in a word document and submit.
Part 2
Answer the questions below in a brief paragraph.
• You review a prescription and find that you cannot determine whether the medication is Trileptal (an antiseizure medication) or Tylenol 3 (a narcotic pain reliever). What would the difference mean to the patient if the wrong drug were given? What should you do in this situation?
• If most patients do not understand Latin, why do you think physicians write the signature in Latin?
The response must include a reference list. Using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, double-space, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
