What is the difference between užívání and POužívání ?Feel free to just provide example sentences.
I saw "zákaz užívání" in a long sentence, and I wonder if it's ok (or even better) to say "zákaz POužívání" instead?

@magasum But that long sentence was not about using "drugs" but a dental "material", here is the sentence:
"amagámová plomba má několik nevhodných vlastností, pro které se již v některých zemích západní Evropy omezuje jejich používání nebo dokonce platí zákaz UŽÍVÁNÍ ve stomatologii."
Is POužívání better in this case? 🤔🤔

@Hao-Hsien maybe the word can also be used with other medical things like tooth fillings. Though I've only seen it with drugs and medicals before.
In my opinion, using užívání with other things like for example hammers or mugs or other clearly non medical things would sound unnatural. In medical settings, they can basically be used interchangeably. Or at least that's my opinion. Professional native Czech doctors would maybe see some difference, but I unfortunately don't. 😃
