Hi @aabadi, that is impossible to be answered on a patient forum like this one. I strongly recommend that you discuss this with the prescribing doctor. As your prescribing doctor to contact the hospital pharmacy directly and, if necessary, to also contact the doctor you are seeing at hospital.

Thank you.
The doctor at the hospital is the one that prescribed it. The hospital seems to have disagreed with his decision and overruled him.
Is that normal? There was no mistake or confusion, just a difference of opinion as to the best treatment.
Does the hospital really have such power?
