Medical report. Does '3dd' in the following sentence mean '3 maal dagelijks' i.e. '3 times a day':

'Postopertief beloop. Augmentin 3dd 1,5 gr gedurende 5 dagen.'

Explanation:
Ik denk van wel, Ron. Maar voor de zekerheid kun je toch net zo snel even een huisarts bellen (of nog beter: degene die "3dd" heeft opgeschreven) Met dit soort vertalingen wil je natuurlijk wel zo zeker mogelijk van je zaak zijn...................

Groet,

Somerset.
