ABOUT THIS DOCUMENT
Translating a prescription with dosage instructions and drug identity intact
A prescription can contain medication names, strength, dosage form, route, frequency, duration, refill information, and prescriber instructions. When used across borders, the same brand name may not exist and the same medicine may be sold under a different name.
Drug names, decimal points, units, abbreviations, and timing instructions require special care. A translation should distinguish the active ingredient from the brand name when the source does, and should not guess at an unclear medication or dosage.
The English version should reproduce the prescriber's instructions faithfully, including quantity, route, frequency, duration, date, patient, and prescriber details. It is a translation of the prescription, not a substitute for medical or pharmacy advice in the United States.
Medication information to verify
Drug/active ingredient, brand name if shown, strength, dosage form, route, frequency, duration, quantity, refills, patient, and prescriber.
Important limitation
Translation makes the original directions understandable; it does not confirm U.S. availability, interchangeability, dosing suitability, or pharmacy acceptance.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can Prescription be translated without certification?
A prescription translation is generally used for treatment, travel, pharmacy, or medical-reference purposes and may not require certification. If a government agency, insurer, court, or other formal recipient requests the prescription as evidence, it can require a certified translation.
Are medication brand names translated in a prescription?
Brand names are usually kept as product names, while active ingredients, dosage forms, strength, route, frequency, and instructions are translated as appropriate. The translation should not substitute a different medication or make prescribing recommendations.
How should dosage instructions and prescribing abbreviations be translated?
The schedule, route, strength, quantity, and frequency should be rendered carefully without changing the prescribed regimen. Ambiguous abbreviations should be handled in context rather than expanded by guesswork.
