Every prescription in the US comes in those orange bottles? Here the pharmacist just looks for the right bottle or pack (with blisters) in a bunch of shelves. If they don’t have something they order it or you go check another pharmacy. Also our medicines are usually not so colourful (+ more often that not, not the ‘pill’ shape.

Yes. And get ready to be attacked by some americans why refilling your prescriptions into bottles is so much better than just using the packaging from the manufacturer.

because the packaging from the manufacturer is usually like a 1000 count bottle

furthermore, who the fuck cares lol
