PO stands for a Latin abbreviation that means "by mouth". So take the tablet; capsule; caplet by mouth. 1-2 day means take 1 or 2 a dayPRN is another abbreviation that stands for "as needed".The prescription should also list PRN number of hours between doses, such as q. 4 hrs; q. 6 hrs.; q. 8 hrs. (q. means every).Since this prescription as you copied it here does not list the hours, I would assume it means 12 hours in between doses.

How do you convert miles per hour to yards per second?

-- Write it down -- Multiply it by ' 1 ' twice. (Remember that a fraction where the numerator is equal to the denominator is ' 1 '.) Let's say the speed is 'Q' miles per hour. Here's what it looks like: (Q mile/hour) x (1,760 yards/mile) x (hour/3,600 seconds) Now multiply the fractions and simplify the product, and you get 22/45 Q or about 0.489 Q yards/second
