What was a key feature of the Durham-Humphrey Amendment of 1951?

  1. Authorized seizure of illegal drugs

  2. Distinguished between prescription and OTC drugs

  3. Imposed advertising restrictions

  4. Established drug importation laws

The correct answer is: Authorized seizure of illegal drugs

The key feature of the Durham-Humphrey Amendment of 1951 was to distinguish between prescription and over-the-counter (OTC) drugs. This amendment was crucial in establishing that certain medications could only be dispensed with a valid prescription from a healthcare provider, while others could be obtained without a prescription directly from a pharmacist. This distinction helped ensure the proper use and dispensing of medications based on their safety and potential risks.
