The worst or strangest orders you have seen...

This may have been done before but I would like to hear about some off the wall orders you've seen MD's write...

Here are a couple from me...

Give 2mg Coumadin qd and prn :uhoh21:

Zantac 150mg q6hours and prn

I have more too but need to think:lol2:

Specializes in Oncology.

I didn't see this in person, but supposedly a doctor wrote an order on a end-stage cancer patient to give narcan and stop all pain meds until family agreed to comfort care only.
