This isn't something people should do without knowing what
they're doing, of course. Generally, people shouldn't act as
their own doctor. Let the professional figure out what's
wrong with you and what medicines you need. Just don't buy
them at a pharmacy at inflated prices.

There are standard books, for example the Physician's Desk
Reference, which will tell you the active ingredients in the
name brand meds, and allow you to figure how to get the
correct dosage with what's available at the farm co-op store.
You *will* save a ton of money.
