I am interested in getting more comfortable prescribing nutraceuticals without feeling like I am “pushing product”. I usually say that DE3 and Nordic Naturals Ultima Omega are comparable and let the patient decide which they want to start. If a patient purchases a PRN product, I don’t want them to feel they are being harassed by a company to get on autoshipment, so I tell them if they are interested, let me know and I will pass on their information to PRN. So, most of the time I do not give the patient information to PRN on their initial purchase.
