For what purpose is 'Ask a doctor or pharmacist before use if you have...' used on OTC drug labels?

  1. Conditions

  2. Drug-drug and drug-food interactions

  3. Side effects

  4. Contraindications

The correct answer is: Drug-drug and drug-food interactions

'Ask a doctor or pharmacist before use if you have...' is used on OTC drug labels because it alerts the person taking the medication to possible interactions between the drug and other prescription or over-the-counter medications, as well as certain types of foods and drinks. This information is important because these interactions may increase the risk of side effects or decrease the effectiveness of the medication. Therefore, options A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not address the main purpose of this warning, which is to caution against potential interactions.
