# Prescription Template

The **Prescription Template** feature streamlines the prescription process, enabling healthcare professionals to create and use predefined templates. These templates allow commonly prescribed medications and dosage details to be reused, saving time, ensuring consistency, and reducing manual entry during patient visits.
