Question: 1 / 400

What does the term "AM" stand for in medical language?

Morning; before noon

AM stands for Ante Meridiem, which is a Latin term for "before midday" or "before noon". Its use in medical language is often seen when noting the time of day for medication dosages or procedures. The term "with" (B) is typically abbreviated as "c" in medical terminology, and is usually used to indicate that two things are being taken together, such as two medications or two symptoms. "Blood vessel" (C) is not typically abbreviated as "AM" in medical language. "Refers to cough" (D) is also an incorrect option, as there is no common abbreviation for "cough" that uses the letters "AM". Overall, the term "AM" is used specifically to indicate time of day and should not be confused with other abbreviations or medical terms.
