A patient worried about an unknown tablet supplied information

Two medication lists differ after a hospital visit. The fictional plan is verification with the hospital team and pharmacist before providing a corrected list.
The two documents need checking against the hospital plan. We will contact the responsible team and pharmacist so that one verified list can be explained clearly.
I will not invent a dose or tell you to start, stop or double a medicine from an unresolved discrepancy in these documents.
With your permission, we can ask him to bring or securely provide that list. We can also use the hospital record rather than relying on your memory of the name.
The clinical team will resolve the discrepancy through the contact route on the card today and explain the verified instructions directly.
