BID, TID, and QID are terms used by doctors for prescribing medicines. BID in Latin stands for <em>bis in die</em>, which means twice a day. When the doctor prescribes a drug with BID priority, it means that the nurse should give it twice, normally with a 12-hour interval. TID stands for <em>ter in die</em>. This means it should be administered three times a day. If this is the prescription of the doctor, the medicine should be given three times within 24 hours. This is within an 8-hour interval. Lastly is QID. In Latin, this means <em>quater in die</em> which means four times a day. Usually, this has a 6-hour interval.

<span>A physician must take into account the patient's weight in order to determine the dose of a medication. For certain medications, they must also take into account the desired effects. For instance, when treating hypertension, depending on the severity of the patient's high blood pressure the dose of the medication may be increased. The route of administration is determined by how quickly the physician wants the medication to take effect. For more immediate effects, a physician may choose to have the medication administered through an IV or an injection as opposed to having the patient take the medication orally.</span>
