A medical prescription. The symbol "Rx" is usually said to stand for the Latin word "recipe" meaning "to take." It is customarily part of the superscription (heading) of a prescription.
Another explanation for the origin of Rx is that it was derived from the astrological sign for Jupiter which was once placed on prescriptions to invoke that god's blessing on the drug to help the patient recover.

The myth is that the X stands for experimental or export, but actually it's just the Mazda naming convention and does mean sport, along with MX (Mazda sportscar) and CX (crossover sport maybe). The R does stand for rotary though.
