Even if you have been prescribed the same drug in the past or may be prescribed it in the future you should not take someone else's medications!.
Maybe they are receiving a different dosage and if you took theirs it would be too much, and it could result in an over dose!.
Also maybe this medication would not do anything for you or have harmful side effects if you take it while using another drug!. For instance if you are taking Birth Control, taking headache medications will lessen the effect of that medication!. Some pain releavers mixed with other medications will make your moods change and can lead to addictions!.
its just not right, if you need a medication ask your doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

even if you are prescribed the same medication as someone else, it may not be the same dose, or one of you may have a generic brand, its just wise to stick to your own medication because you never know what people keep in their medicine bottlesWww@Answer-Health@Com
because you don't know if that drug is the right one for what you are taking it for, let's say you friend has strep throat and you have bronchitis, well just because you take antibiotics for both of them, doesn't mean that just any one will doWww@Answer-Health@Com
Putting aside the question of it being illegal, you might not be prescribed the same dosage and they might run out because you are sharing the pills and not be able to get the refill they need!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
