What exactly is a protocol drug order?

Can someone please explain to me exactly what a protocol drug order is? Is a standing order the same thing? Also, would you mind giving some examples? I have the general definition my Pharm. book gives me, but I'm not grasping it as specifically as I'd like to.

Thanks, in advance!

Angel
