Guest guest Posted August 3, 2003 Report Share Posted August 3, 2003 Hi , " Kps " should be " Kapseln " , i.e. " capsules " . Sorry, I don't know about the rest, maybe someone else does. Regards Cornelia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 3, 2003 Report Share Posted August 3, 2003 Hi , Maybe " 1 ST " stands for " Unit " if it is followed by a price indication (ST = Stück = piece/unit), but it all depends ...

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2003 Report Share Posted August 3, 2003 Hi , Just one more idea/suggestion: Since the context of the prescription seems to be prostate disease, maybe " PM " stands for " Prostata-Medikament " ??? But really, that's just a guess. Or it refers to the time of administration: after lunch or so (post meridiem). Cornelia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 3, 2003 Report Share Posted August 3, 2003 Hi : My last suggestion was, of course, nonsense. I apologize. I hadn't seen " PM " comes after " Datum " . (I shouldn't work any longer today...). Regards, Cornelia Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
