Project Outline:
I. Introduction
Prescription drugs are a part of our everyday lives whether we realize it or not.
With the advent of these remedies starting in the late 1800s to the modern technological
marvels available to us on the market today, many diseases and ailments have been
curtailed. As with anything too good to be true however, with the positives also come
negatives. We will discuss the history of prescription drugs, list several topics for both
positive and negative aspects of prescription drug use, and conclude with arguments
defending our side of the topic.

positive and negative aspects of prescription drugs. From their advent in the late 1800s to
present day, there have been tremendous breakthroughs in medical technology. With these
breakthroughs however, there have also been negative aspects that occur to include
dependency and death. (Here
we will state our side of the argument once we
figure out what that is and agree).
