Old Scripts

To maintain old scripts select the Old Scripts tab in the patient's Clinical Window. This list shows all medications that have been prescribed for the current patient.

A medication is deemed 'prescribed' when it is sent to your printer for printing, even if the printing fails due to printer problems, for example.
