Question

PRESCRIPTIONS ARE REQUIRED FOR SOME DRUGS BECAUSE *

Answer 1

All of the above

Explanation:

A prescription drug (also called a prescription medication or prescription medicine) is a pharmaceutical drug that can be legally obtained only with a prescription. Drugs that can be bought without a prescription are called over-the-counter drugs.

All of the listed options are correct as:

Some illnesses need to be evaluated by a doctor before an effective treatment begins. Some of them are serious and only a professional (or more of them) can determine what medicine is going to work.

Some prescription medicines can do more harm than good if you don't take them properly. Sometimes they need to be properly dosed or taken at a certain time so that they cause any damage. Besides that, some prescription medicines can cause addiction.

A doctor should be the one who evaluates your needs. It's true that we know our bodies the best, but sometimes we may not really need the medicine we were convinced we needed.
