Answer:

Jane is to take (orally) the 200 mg ibuprofen capsule three times per day.

Explanation:

In a prescription, tid or t.i.d (which stands for "ter in die" in latin) means three times in a day and PO (which stands for "per os" in latin) means the medication should be taken orally (by mouth). Hence, in the prescription given to Jane, she is to take (orally) the 200 mg ibuprofen capsule three times per day.
