Physician-assisted suicide basically is a type of assisted suicide in which a physician is involved, usually one who will prescribe some medication or combination of medications that taken together and following the instructions given, will induce the patient's death. The physician will not administer the medication, and may not be present during the commission of the suicide.

Physician-assisted suicide is a practice where a physician provides a terminally ill patient with the means to end their own life, typically through medication. This practice is controversial and subject to legal restrictions in many countries. It is important to distinguish this from euthanasia, where a medical professional administers the lethal dose.
