Why does the pharmacist add these little ticks/checkmarks with a pen on my medication box?

      Damn. Yeah, it is. Didn’t think I’d ever be able to forget some of that stuff. Glad to be wrong, though

  Is there a “Postgabalin”?

  • orhtej2@eviltoast.org ⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    There’s gabapentin from the same group.

    Read it as “Preg-a-bailin” and thought it was highly insensitive.

  They’re comparing to the actual medication to make sure they’re giving you the right thing.

  source

  • 58008@lemmy.world ⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Ahh, so it’s like they’re reading from the order/prescription, and say “ok he needs pregabalin - tick - and it’s 300mgs - tick - and it’s hard capsules - tick”, or something to that effect?

    source

    • spankinspinach@sh.itjust.works ⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      Yup. Medication can have pretty similar names for wildly different drugs, so just doing a little due diligence to make sure you don’t grow a third ear or something
