- 有没有治咳嗽的药?(Yǒu méiyǒu zhì késou de yào?) — Is there medicine for coughs?
Asking about dosage:
- 这个药一天吃几次?(Zhège yào yītiān chī jǐ cì?) — How many times a day do I take this?
- 一次吃几片?(Yīcì chī jǐ piàn?) — How many tablets each time?
Checking safety:
- 这个药有副作用吗?(Zhège yào yǒu fùzuòyòng ma?) — Does this medicine have side effects?
- 可以和其他药一起吃吗?(Kěyǐ hé qítā yào yīqǐ chī ma?) — Can I take it with other medicines?

Veelgemaakte fouten
我要买一个感冒的药。我要买感冒药。In Chinese, compound nouns drop 的 — 感冒药 (cold medicine) is one word, not 感冒的药.
这个药有什么副作用吗?这个药有副作用吗?副作用 already implies a specific meaning — adding 什么 makes it awkward. Use the simpler form.
我头不舒服。我头疼。头 alone does not express discomfort — 头疼 (headache) is the correct compound word for head pain.
药剂师说我一天要吃三次。药剂师说我一天要吃三次药。The object 药 is needed — without it the sentence is incomplete: eat what three times a day?
我对这个药过敏的。我对这个药过敏。No 的 is needed at the end of a simple factual statement — 过敏 alone closes the predicate.
