Think of high blood pressure, for example\u2014one doctor might prescribe one medication, while another doctor prefers a different medication. But which is actually the best choice?<\/p>\n<p>Answers aren\u2019t always clear. One way to get closer to a good answer is to study what is taking place in medical settings like doctors\u2019 offices and hospitals.
