Medication

 Medication is given when a person is sick. Some people might need to take medicine a few days to get over a cold or flu. Some people need to take medication in pill form every day, every week, or every month. 

There are two types of medication. Over the counter medication is the type of medicine a person can get at the store without a prescription from the doctor. Prescription medication, however, requires a doctor sign and the person with a prescription needs to go to the pharmacy to get their medicine. Prescription medication cannot be bought directly from the store.
