Samantha124:Have you ever encountered a prescription that it is so hard to read. Even pharmacists outside the hospital won't get it. |

Enemyofpeace:The jargon that doctors deal with also lends itself to bad handwriting. |

Enemyofpeace: Not deliberate. Science students generally have bad handwriting. Sometimes, I wonder how my teacher reads my notes. However, it is only science students that write fast that is more prone to this type of writing. I am a very fast writer. |

DECLAN2015:Smh. When you don't want the Pharmacist to intervene to correct the errors in your prescription, you better go to Pharmacy school first before you start writing prescriptions with errors. You want to be a drug expert obviously but you can not be one if you are not a Pharmacist. The medication was compounded by a Pharmacist who knows what you want to achieve in the patient and immediately knows your complaints. Even for off-label use of any medication, the Pharmacist is your last line of defense and the Prescription is his/her property. You're completely ignorant if you think the Pharmacist doesn't know your problem yet could formulate medication for that your problem. If you don't take advantage of his expert advice, na you sabi o. On the errors, let me just leave it to the only one you figured. I only brought it up to let OP know why the handwriting is even like that. I am not getting into the petty Prescriber-Pharmacist gbosgbas joor. Btw, it's not right that OP's prescription is shared on social media like this. |

Matinox: This, exactly is the simple reason for the bad handwriting. Those saying it's because they don't want u to see the prescription are simply uninformed. One, as a patient, u have the rights to know what drug or injection u are given. And two, even if u don't know the name of the drug cuz of the doctor's bad hand writing, aren't u goin to easily see it on the package when the pharmacists give u? |

I have noticed this too. Almost all of them write that way. Meanwhile I'm an experience driver in Lagos. I need a car to drive on uber/bolt for weekly remittance. Please if you have a car for me, quote me or check contact on my profile. |

Se do it on purpose, like a code thing you just have to learn it. They write beautifully in their noted but write zigzag-ly when writing for patients |

Legend has it that certain number of people die each year as a result of the doctor's handwritings. The pharmacist, not able to decode correctly would hand out the wrong medication! |
Re: Why Are Medical Doctors' Handwriting So Difficult To Read?(photo) by drphantom: 12:42pm On Oct 17, 2023 |
Enemyofpeace: Lol. I read it easily. The prescription is not for you. It's for the pharmacist and they understand our hurried-borne-of-rapidly-taking-notes-in-class handwriting....at least mostly. If you want to know what your doctor is giving you, simply ask him or her |
