Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the difference between
prescription drugs and over-the-counter drugs?
There are two types of medications: drugs your doctor prescribes
for you, called prescription drugs, and those you can get without a
doctor's prescription, called over-the-counter drugs. It is
important to realize that over-the-counter products include many
different substances such as vitamins and minerals, herbal and
dietary supplements, laxatives, cold medicines, and antacids.
