Prescriptions

Poor quality of forms

From Mr W. D. Fisher, MRPharmS

Apart from having to contend with illegibly scrawled prescriptions (PJ, April 21, p539), pharmacists have also had to contend with computer-generated prescriptions that were not only dangerously faintly printed but were often so badly aligned that information was not included on the form or the printing did not show up over the form's markings.
