what does rx stands for in doctor's prescription
Medical prescription 'â„ž' is a symbol meaning "recipe". It is sometimes transliterated as "Rx" or just "Rx". This symbol originated in medieval manuscripts as an abbreviation of the Late Latin verb recipe, the second person singular imperative form of recipere, "to take", thus: "take thou".[3] Medieval prescriptions invariably began with the command to "take" certain materials and compound them in specified ways.[4]
