Default Medical Abbrev.

BID is twice a day, TID is three times a day and QHS is bedtime. I was a medical receptionist for a few years. I hope this helps

Actually, q.i.d. stands for 4 times a day. The others are: b.i.d. twice a day, q.4 h. every four hours, q.h. every hour, t.i.d. three times a day. q.d. stands for every day but is on dangerous abbreviations list and should be written out as "daily" or "every day". Same with q.o.d. which stands for every other day and should be written out.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of..._abbreviations

Wikipedia has the answer.

However, QD is once a day..BID twice a day...TID three times a day and QID four times a day...QOD every other day.
