[Grammar] medicine

[Will17]

Hello!

I can't actually figure out whether we can use "medicine" in the plural form... Can you help me, please?

Can we say, "I need to take some medicines"?

Thank you
Will

We can use the word in the plural, though I would probably say "I need to take several medicines", or "... several different kinds of medicine".

I might say, " His bathroom was full of pills and medicines".
