Therapeutic Classes

Medications are grouped by how they work in the body. Browse our catalog by therapeutic category to find the right treatment for you.

Understanding Medication Classes

A drug class is a group of medications that may have similar chemical structures, the same mechanism of action (i.e., binding to the same biological target), a related mode of action, and/or are used to treat the same disease.

At GetMeds, we organize our extensive catalog into these therapeutic categories to help you navigate your treatment options safely. Whether you are looking for Antibiotics to fight an infection or Statins to manage cholesterol, understanding the class can help you discuss alternatives and generics with your doctor.


Frequently Asked Questions

Often yes, but only under doctor supervision. While drugs in the same class treat the same condition, they may have different side effects or interactions. Never switch medication without consulting your healthcare provider.
