If a doctor says a med is to be given TDS - would that mean every 8 hours? Or particular times
Just saw on another post that an educator told their student that TDS doesn’t equate to every 8 hours
I honestly thought it would be every 8 hours - so TDS being 3 times a day / over 24 hr period equaling 8 hours
If I had a med scheduled TDS and the med was given at 8am instead of 7am then I would wait 8 hours for the next dose
I’ve noticed doctors will say TDS but never give set times
We use EMR if that helps (VIC)
