Can dieticians/nutritionist prescribe medications?


Answer:
No. Doctor's can prescribe medications, and in some states Nurse Practitioner's and/or Physician assistants may have limited prescribing ability. Dietitians/nutritionist can recommend over the counter products only.
No they cannot
nope.. they can recommend something but you should for sure ask a doctor first
No they can not
Nope. They can recommend something to you/your doctor, but they can't prescribe anything.
Nope. MD's only.
It wud be dangerous to give them the authority to do so.
