What is the abbreviation for 'four times a day'?

  1. q.i.d

  2. q.o.d

  3. q.4.a

  4. f.t.d

The correct answer is: q.i.d

"q.i.d" is the abbreviation for "quater in die" in Latin, which translates to "four times a day". Option B, "q.o.d", stands for "quaque altera die" or "every other day" and is therefore incorrect. Option C, "q.4.a", is not a commonly used abbreviation and does not follow the standard format for frequency abbreviations, making it an unlikely option. Finally, option D, "f.t.d", is not an agreed upon abbreviation and is not recognized by medical professionals.
