Answer:

A. Prescription drugs need authorization from a doctor, while over-the-counter drugs do not.

Explanation:

Over-the-counter drugs are those that can be sold without a prescription. That is, these drugs can be purchased by anyone without the need for medical authorization. These medications include painkillers, vitamins, antacids, laxatives and nasal decongestants. These medications treat mild symptoms such as fever, cough, headache, thrush, sore throat, diaper rash, hemorrhoids, nasal congestion and heartburn.

On the other hand, prescription drugs can only be purchased with medical authorization. These medications treat more serious symptoms and illnesses. Its use must be extremely regulated and monitored by the doctor and for this reason authorization is required. Among these medications are antibiotics and antidepressants.

Answer:

C. Encourage them to abandon traditional treatments.

Explanation:

American culture is very different from Asian culture and this should be taken into consideration by healthcare professionals who treat Asian American patients.

As we know medical care should promote well being in the patient and leave him with a feeling of comfort and safety. For this reason, it is necessary that when caring for Asian American patients, health centers should ensure good communication through detailed explanations and language translation when necessary. In addition, health professionals should show respect for family relationships to patient needs and should include the patient's family in discussions.

Many Asian Americans maintain cultural traditions and often use traditional treatments for their health problems. This should not be discouraged, but health professionals should emphasize the importance of current medical treatments for the patient. Finally, health professionals should understand that health promotion creates a unique challenge given the varied cultures and traditions involved.
