...if what you're "prescribing" doesn't really exist, maybe you shouldn't be prescribing it?
I am the Crazy RxMan, your local pharmacist... smart enough to be a pharmacist, insane enough to work retail!

Thank you..I see this at least once a week and when I call they are all surprised.. Um yeah dummies
ReplyDeletePeople have been prescribing 5/325 for decades. It's in their muscle memory. So some bright thing decided to take 25mg of Tylenol out of the tab, saving a handful of hypothetical people from liver failure. You expect docs to remember that? Sorry. Not high on my list of priorities.
ReplyDeleteVicodin never existed as a 325 version (you're thinking of Norco). Writing for Vicodin 5/325 would be like writing for OxyContin immediate release.
ReplyDeleteWrite for hydrocodone/APAP if you can't be bothered to learn trade names.
