Medical Subject Headings (MeSH): Prescription Drugs

Prescription Drugs are medications that are prescribed by a healthcare provider, such as a doctor or nurse practitioner, and dispensed by a pharmacy. They are used to treat, diagnose, or prevent various medical conditions.

In healthcare, prescription drugs play an important role in improving patient health and outcomes. Some common types of prescription drugs include:

Pain relievers (analgesics)

Antidepressants

Antibiotics

Hormones

Blood pressure medications

Cholesterol-lowering drugs.

Prescription drugs can be effective in treating medical conditions, but they can also have potential risks and side effects. Healthcare providers and patients should carefully consider the benefits and risks of any prescription drug before starting treatment, and regularly review and monitor the use of prescription drugs.

In addition, it is important to follow proper storage and disposal practices for prescription drugs to prevent medication errors, abuse, and other adverse outcomes.
