Overprescription is a term used to describe a medical situation where a healthcare professional prescribes too much medication to a patient. There are many other words that can be used to describe this scenario, such as excessive prescribing, medication overload, overtreatment, polypharmacy, and drug overuse. All of these terms indicate that the medication given is more than what is required or necessary for treating a particular medical condition. Sometimes, multiple drugs are prescribed at the same time, which can lead to increased adverse reactions and drug interactions. It is crucial for healthcare providers to avoid overprescription and to ensure that patients receive the appropriate amount of medication that is required for their condition.
