Assignment Topic: Ethical and Legal Implications of Prescribing Drugs
What type of drug should you prescribe based on your patient’s diagnosis? How much of the drug should the patient receive?
How often should the drug be administered? When should the drug not be prescribed? Are there individual patient factors that could create complications when taking the drug?
Should you be prescribing drugs to this patient? How might different state regulations affect the prescribing of this drug to this patient?
These are some of the questions you might consider when selecting a treatment plan for a patient.
