During a doctor’s visit for your injury, your doctor may want to give you your prescription medication right from their office, rather than sending it to a local or mail order pharmacy. This practice is called physician dispensing.
If you’ve been injured at work, it’s likely that you have one of the most common workplace injuries: muscle strains and sprains, fractures, or head injuries.
People aged 65 and above often have age-related changes that can affect how a medication works in their body, including (but not limited to) decreased muscle mass, increased body fat, and reduced liver and kidney function.
