The abbreviations QD and QOD have caused many mistakes among medical staffs, pharmacists, and patients, so The Joint Commission which gives institutions accreditation has recommended that all directions must be written out.

QD means ONCE daily (one time a day).

QID means four (4) times daily.

QOD means every other day.

P.O. means "by mouth".

NOTE: The frequency and route of administration may be different for each medication.
