In 1951, the Act was amended - the Durham-Humphrey Amendment - to formally distinguish between prescription and over-the-counter drugs. Until that time, all drugs could be purchased over-the-counter by consumers. The amendment stated that prescription drugs were required to contain a warning that the drugs could be dispensed legally only with the authorization of a health professional.
