I definitely agree with this. For most people, if a doctor prescribes you a medicine, and tells you how to take it, the patient is highly likely to take the medicine. Even if the patient was to read a warning label later, they are still much more likely to trust the doctor’s judgement than what the label says. If the medicine was bought over-the-counter, without a professional’s instruction, then the label is much more valuable to the user.
