In the Philippines you do not need a prescription to buy many kinds of drugs. Antibiotics are easily obtainable over the counter. all drugs including over the counter pain killers are behind the counter in reality. there are no walk through drug stores as in the U.S. Canada, and many other countries. You have to stand and wait your turn even to buy vitamins.
The ironic thing is drugs like Sudafed are unavailable with out a specific prescription and this extends for good reason to any Opiate derived pain killers. Doctors will examine you and give you a prescription for antibiotics, but it is not needed. Be aware that you should examine any medication for an expiration date before purchasing. Also buy branded drugs from reputable drug companies to avoid counterfits.
