OP Ut D. I had a scary experience with prescription directions. The hospital had a stupid policy
of having some medications given to patients actually made in chem lab.
A private physician had written an order for a young girl to be given a vaginal douche
based on something almost as bad as corrosive sublimate. I was covering for three interns
who claimed they were ill conveniently at Xmas. I was in a hurry, and asked her if she
knew how it was to be taken. She was too bashful to discuss it, and just said yes.
The private physicians were awful touchy about interns talking to their patients, so
I just handed her the stuff. She went home and drank it. A special providence made
her vomit it and rinse quickly enough that stricture of esophagus did not develop.
