The problem
Small change. Big confusion.
The same medicine, different names, strengths or availability. It can be confusing — and even risky.
Same medicine, different name
What you know as Panadol might be Tylenol where you are.
Different strength or salt
The same medicine can come in different forms or strengths.
Pharmacist can't find it
You're in a new country and the pharmacy staff aren't familiar with it.
