Let's talk about double-cross drugs. The main thing is to say that a drug has the same name, respectively, according to a prescription drug management, an over-the-counter drug management, the safety of the drug as a non-prescription drug is higher than that of prescription drugs, because prescription drugs need to be purchased with a doctor's prescription, and non-prescription drugs can be purchased according to their needs. In addition to the content, we should also pay attention to the labeling, general prescription drugs have no label but will have the national drug standard, and non-prescription drugs will have the OTC logo and the national medicine standard. Common double-span drugs are;Antipyretic, analgesic and anti-inflammatory drugs, gastrointestinal drugs, and Chinese patent medicines.
The significance of double-cross drugs is to allow drugs to be distinguished from professional guidance and drug therapy, so as to expand the use of drugs.
Therefore, everyone should pay attention when buying designated drugs to prevent buying mistakes.
First of all, to distinguish between double-span drugs, you need to pay attention to the packaging and labeling of the drug. Generally, there will be a clear indication on the packaging and label of the drug that the drug is prescription or over-the-counter. If the label is unclear or there is no clear labeling, it is necessary to combine the name, ingredients and instructions of use of the drug to determine its identity.
Secondly, to distinguish between double-cross drugs, it is necessary to pay attention to the name and composition of the drug. Some medicines have the same name but may have different ingredients, some have a higher ingredient content and require a doctor's prescription to buy and use, while some have a lower ingredient content and can be purchased directly in pharmacies. Therefore, when buying medicines, you need to carefully check the ingredient content and name of the drugs to avoid misuse of them.
Finally, to distinguish between double-cross drugs, it is also necessary to pay attention to the instructions for use of the drug. In general, prescription drugs will be more detailed and rigorous, while over-the-counter drugs will be relatively simple and straightforward. If you encounter doubts or uncertainties when using the medicine, you can refer to the instructions for use of the medicine or consult your doctor or pharmacist for advice.
In conclusion, the correct differentiation between double-cross drugs is important for the health of patients. When purchasing and using medicines, we need to carefully review information such as the packaging and label, name and ingredients, and instructions for use of medicines to ensure that they are used correctly. At the same time, for uncertain medicines, we can consult the advice of a doctor or pharmacist in order to better protect our health.
