The term "PO TID" on a doctor's prescription or order would mean: "by mouth, three times daily". PO means by mouth. This medical abbreviation, which is also written as: p.o. or po (lower case), comes from the Latin phrase "per os". The term TID means three times daily, or three times per daily. This medical abbreviation, which is also written as: t.i.d. or tid (lower case), comes from the later phrase "ter in die".

PO is the medical abbreviation for by mouth. When a doctor prescribes something as one tab po daily, it means you are to take one tablet daily by mouth.
I think this is a combination of P.O. plus t.i.d. plus a.c., which is: p.o. = by mouth, orally (from "per os," by mouth) t.i.d. = three times a day (from "ter in die," 3 times a day) a.c. = before meals (from "ante cibum," before meals)
