Answer:

A. Brand-name medications are easier to purchase because generic medications usually need to be specially ordered.

Step-by-step explanation:

Generic medications are not an over the counter supply because some people might not use them as they should be used. You have to set up an appointment with a doctor to get these medications ordered for you.
