Can You Guess Which Common American Medications Are Illegal in Other Countries?

We’re constantly being bombarded with messages about how we need to watch what we’re putting into our bodies. Are we drinking enough water? Have we eaten enough fruits and vegetables today? Have we eaten too much sugar already? These are all great things to worry about, and they affect our lives more than we know, but there’s something else that we don’t think about too much. Something many of us consume a lot of. Medicine.For most of us, we take our medicine without second thought. If we have a headache, we take what we always have taken. If we have a cough, we reach for the same brand. If our doctor prescribes something, we might complain about the cost, but we definitely take that. We don’t think about the fact that we’re ingesting very strong chemical substances into our bodies. We don’t think about what that could mean for our health.Don’t get us wrong. Medicine is an amazing thing. It’s helped humanity in so many ways, and without it, most of us wouldn’t be where we are today. But there’s some medicine out there that we only realize is dangerous after it’s been around for a while.Many times, other countries figure this out before we do. Some places have stricter laws. Some countries just study areas that we haven’t. Either way, these medicines have been banned in other countries. Take this quiz and see if you can guess which common medications you might be taking that other countries have declared harmful.
