Using the prescription templates provided, practice writing prescriptions for the following scenarios. After performing blood tests, you determine that your patient John Doe (DOB 4/15/1965) has hypothyroidism. In addition to naturopathic treatments, you decide to give him levothyroxine tablets, at a daily dosage strength of 50 mcg. The medication is to be taken once daily away from food (one hour before eating or 2 hours after). In 8 weeks, you will retest his thyroid levels and determine whether this is the correct dosage. Therefore, you would like the prescription to be written for one month, with enough refills to last at least 2 months.
