Just curious about something. I work as a Pharmacy Assistant in a Pharmacy, (Drugstore) and there's something I've noticed about people from USA. They ask for things which in Australia are blatantly prescription medications only such as strong pain killers and antibiotics. I can appreciate differences in regulations of painkillers in different countries but antibiotics?? They're over prescribed as it is. But seriously are they really available over the counter because I find that VERY hard to believe.
Though some of the pain killers that are requested and claims that they are over the counter in USA are questionable at best as they contain opiates or are classified as controlled drugs.
Maybe I'm not being as sympathetic as I should be because I'm tired of hearing, "You can't get anything over the counter in this country."
