The Medplum-DoseSpot integration allows you to configure **clinic favorite medications** which can significantly **reduce the number of clicks required for clinicians to prescribe common medications**. This allows your organization to:

- Standardize prescribing practices across your clinic to avoid mistakes and excessive clicks
- Reduce prescription time for clinicians to prescribe frequently prescribed medications

## How It Works [​](/content/docs/integration/dosespot/clinic-favorite-medications#how-it-works/index.html)

When clinicians access the DoseSpot eRx iframe through Medplum, they'll see an option to start with one of your organization's favorite medications displayed when creating a new prescription. This allows them to:

1. **Quickly select** from your organization's favorite medications
2. **Input Prescription Specifics:** Edit any of the default details for the medication, like the strength, patient instructions, or dispense type that might need to be customized for this specific prescription
3. **Save** the prescription

## Setting Up Clinic Favorite Medications [​](/content/docs/integration/dosespot/clinic-favorite-medications#setting-up-clinic-favorite-medications/index.html)

The following step-by-step guide, using the [Medplum Provider App DoseSpot page](https://provider.medplum.com/integrations/dosespot), will walk you through configuring favorite medications in DoseSpot for your organization.

**1\. Use the [Medplum Provider App DoseSpot page](https://provider.medplum.com/integrations/dosespot) to add a new DoseSpot favorite medication.**

**2\. Select the medication you want, add your patient directions, and save to your favorites.**

**3\. The medication will now be available in DoseSpot iframe when creating a new prescription.**

**4\. Select the medication from your favorites when creating a new prescription, and fill out any additional details if needed.**

This Medplum Provider App DoseSpot page is an **unopinionated example of a favorite medication management page**. The building blocks for it are in the _useDoseSpotClinicFormulary_ hook from the [Medplum react hooks](https://github.com/medplum/medplum/tree/main/packages/dosespot-react) package. You can use this hook to build your own favorite medication management page, using your own frontend patterns and components.

The Provider App example implementation can be found [here](https://github.com/medplum/medplum/tree/main/examples/medplum-provider/src/pages/integrations/DoseSpotFavoritesPage.tsx).
