Anything else that is classified as an antibiotic will also be controlled even if it's not in the list. The pharmacy will probably keep the original prescription, so physicians that prescribe antibiotics along with other medication might write a prescription for the antibiotic and another prescription for the rest, in case the patient ends up buying them in different pharmacies.
¡Gracias! That is a definite change!

Muchos cambios - I see Chilangos will actually have to take driving tests to get a driver's license!

Connections can still access meds on the list, but for most a prescription for the generic medication will fulfill requirements. I agree with HMPS - deal with a reputable, established pharmacy always.
