摘要：AbstractPrescription writing is a core competency of a newly qualified doctor. Many authors found that medical students were unprepared to prescribe drugs. This study was aimed to identify the level of competency in prescription writing skills among fifth year UKM medical students. Case write-ups from several rotations were evaluated. The data were divided into patient detail errors and medication errors. The study showed lack of competency in prescription writing skills. Non-standardized prescription template and lack of feedback have also been identified as weakness in this exercise. Improvement of case write-up exercise and introduction to prescription writing are needed for improvement.
