In this lesson

Ask for a general product without requesting medical advice.

The idea, simply

Name the product you need; for medical advice, ask to speak with the pharmacist. Say I need something for a headache to describe your need. The pharmacist gives general advice; a diagnosis comes from a doctor.

  • I need something for a headache.

  • How often should I take it?
