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.
