How do I write and issue a digital prescription?

HelloDr's prescription tools let you issue clear, professional prescriptions during or after a consultation, which the patient can use immediately at any pharmacy. Everything is saved to their record automatically.

Creating a prescription

1. Open the appointment/consultation in your panel.
2. Add medicines with the dosage, frequency and duration.
3. Include instructions, advice, and any follow-up or tests.
4. Issue it — the patient receives it instantly in their account.

Best practices

• Use clear drug names and strengths to avoid dispensing errors at the pharmacy.
• Add lifestyle advice and any red-flag warnings the patient should watch for.
• Order only the tests you genuinely need via a referral, to keep costs reasonable for the patient.

Templates & branding

Prescriptions and clinical reports generate as professional documents carrying your details, and some templates support bilingual (English/Urdu) layouts for clarity. They're stored privately and shared securely.

Because each prescription builds the patient's medication history, future doctors can see what's already been tried — which improves safety and continuity. Clear, consistent prescriptions also reflect well on your practice and earn patient trust.
