Mr. S.<em> </em>was placed on <em>Metformin 500 mg daily </em> to enable the drug reduce the sugar the liver ingests into his blood stream.

Documenting a source is another way to say Citing a source. When you cite a source you are telling where you got the info and who was the author of that info. When you don't cite a source that is called PLAGIARISING. Plagiarism is illegal and in most schools, there are huge consequences. So, when you use info that is not yours, make sure to cite it :)

Hope that helps!
