What does the abbreviation T.I.D stand for?

  1. Two times a day

  2. Three times a day

  3. Twice in daytime

  4. Thrice in darkness

The correct answer is: Three times a day

T.I.D stands for "three times a day". This is a common abbreviation used in medication instructions to indicate that a medication should be taken three times over the course of a day. Options A and C are incorrect because they do not accurately explain the meaning of the abbreviation. "Two times a day" and "twice in daytime" both suggest that the medication should be taken twice, rather than three times. Option D is also incorrect, as "thrice in darkness" is not a commonly used abbreviation and does not accurately describe the dosing frequency.
