EN: Medicine (the field or the substance)
The dream course of every Filipino parent for their child. It's the whole universe of doctors, hospitals, prescriptions, and that one subject in college that made you cry (hello, organic chemistry). It's both the pill you take for a headache and the entire profession dedicated to making that headache go away.
From Spanish 'medicina' (medicine).
Can refer to the field of study ('nag-aaral ng medisina') or the actual medication ('uminom ng medisina'), though 'gamot' is more common for the latter.
