English term or phrase: prescription cold medicine
Driving while impaired, that's what I was charged with. When it was prescription cold medicine I had taken.

Kan iemand me hier uit de nood helpen? Alvast bedankt!

verkoudheidsmiddel op recept
Explanation:
Of, vanwege de spreektaal: 'een voorgeschreven verkoudheidsmiddeltje'.

'Receptplichtig' lijkt me wat te formeel voor deze tekst. Daarom gewoon 'op recept' of 'voorgeschreven'.

"Verkoudheidsmiddelen: Groep van medicijnen die bij verkoudheid en griep door middel van een hoest-dempende, neusademhaling-bevorderende, keel-verzachtende en/of slijm-oplossende werking de verkoudheidsklachten verlichten." (ref.)
