Guest guest Posted July 8, 2002 Report Share Posted July 8, 2002 Ramona, I sure wish doctors would learn how to pronounce drug, but I guess I am just dreaming. Anyway, the first would be Moduretic, which is an antihypertensive and diuretic combination. I have always typed masses as 1.5 x 1.5 x 3 cm. Some docs will say this as 1.5 cm by 1.5 cm by 3 cm, but according to AAMT BOS the cm at the end will be understood as the measurement throughout. Hope this helps, Margaret >>> " Ramona Leavitt " 07/08/02 09:16PM >>> 1-Medication: s/l Margeretic ... Megeretic ??? The Dr. pronounces the 'g' like the 'g' in geriatric. Patient's medical history is hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, depression and asthma. I can't find this word anywhere. My spell checker isn't catching the way I spell it. 2-When the Dr. describes a sinus mass he says " 1.5 by 1.5 by 3 centimeters " how would you type it? TIA, Ramona raleeii@...

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2002 Report Share Posted July 8, 2002 Any chance the med is Moduretic? It's an antihypertensive. I would type the mass as 1.5 x 1.5 x 3 cm.

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2002 Report Share Posted July 8, 2002 On the drug, see if it sounds like Moduretic, used for hypertension. (Monthly Prescribing Reference) As far as the dimensions, I type 1.5 x 1.5 x 3 cm with my docs.

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2002 Report Share Posted July 8, 2002 Hi Ramona, I haven't been able to help you with your medication, but the sinus mass measurement (according to BOS), it should be 1.5 x 1.5 x 3 cm. medication & wording help needed > 1-Medication: s/l Margeretic ...

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2002 Report Share Posted July 8, 2002 ALL YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks everyone. I am amazed at your knowledge of Moduretic, especially with my weird hearing (or Drs. pronunciation, yea that's it!!). What would I do without you all?? Ramona raleeii@...
