medicine?
There are three broad categories of medicines - prescription medicines, over-thecounter medicines and complementary medicines.
Prescription Medicines
You can only purchase a prescription medicine if you have a prescription for it
from your doctor. Examples of prescription medicines include contraceptive
pills, antibiotics and strong painkillers.
Complementary Medicines
Complementary medicines (also known as 'traditional' or 'alternative'
medicines) include vitamin, mineral, herbal, aromatherapy and homoeopathic
products. Like OTC products, these products are available without a
prescription.
