Cultural Tip
In French‑speaking countries, health professionals often ask patients to provide a complete list of their drugs, including over‑the‑counter products and supplements, because drug interactions are taken very seriously. In a formal medical setting you would normally use the polite "vous" (e.g., "Indiquez tous les médicaments que vous prenez"). Using "tu" signals familiarity and should be reserved for informal contexts.
