The abbreviation for 'four times a day' in medical terms is 'qid'! 😊 This actually comes from the Latin term 'quater in die'. This term and other similar ones are commonly used in healthcare to guide dosage times for medicine. Isn't it intriguing how Latin is still so intertwined with modern language and industries?
