<span>The statement is TRUE.
Over the counter drugs do not need the doctor’s prescriptions as they are
effective and safe when the dosage on the label is strictly followed. However,
there are some drugs that can cause allergies to other people so it is best to
ask for doctor’s advice when dealing with unknown or unfamiliar medicines even
if they are not prescription drugs. It is important and mandatory to also read
the instructions that come with the medicines as they have allergen
information. </span>
