    The objective of this research thesis was to investigate the commercialization of prescription drugs in non-pharmaceutical establishments in the district of Los Olivos in 2018. The methodology involved a descriptive, observational, and cross-sectional study that used a "shopping simulation" data collection form. This simulation was applied to a sample of 664 non-pharmaceutical establishments from June to November 2018 to determine if they sold prescription medications. The results showed that 68.2% of the establishments had prescription drugs available, while 31.8% did not. The most common prescription drugs found were antibiotics (amoxicillin, ampicillin, sulfamethoxazole+trimethoprim), NSAIDs (naproxen, ketorolac, diclofenac, and ibuprofen), and antispasmodics (Buscapina and Plidan), along with others like Doloflan Extra Forte (diclofenac + paracetamol) and Damicocyn 1.5 mg (levonorgestrel). The non-pharmaceutical establishments with the highest incidence of commercialization were grocery stores ("bodegas") at 92%, followed by retail stores at 6.2% and bazaars at 1.1%. In conclusion, this investigation reveals that a high percentage of non-pharmaceutical establishments sell prescription drugs, highlighting this practice as a real problem. Therefore, it is necessary to educate the public about the potential consequences of selling prescription drugs without a qualified professional to provide information on their proper use.
