Not everyone can figure out a doctor’s prescription. Because, well, 99 out of 100 times, doctors write in some illegible script that only your pharmacist can understand.

Well, this doctor on Quora seems to have an answer and it does make sense!

Well, seems like a legit reason.
Now no one dare joke about doctors’ handwriting!
