Can someone with a masters of science degree prescribe medication?
Technically speaking, anyone can "prescribe" medication ("You should take some aspirin"). Whether it is legally permissible for a pharmacist to fill that prescription or not is a different issue. In general, "prescription medications" can only be dispensed if the prescription was written by a physician (a medical doctor or a doctor of osteopathy). In many jurisdictions other degrees confer limited prescribing powers... for example, a dentist (doctor of dental surgery) is usually permitted to prescribe painkillers and antibiotics. Nowhere that I know of is the prescription of someone with a masters of science degree and no other qualifications treated any differently, legally, than one written by a high school dropout.

It is very important to follow TO-THE-LETTER all instructions given with any medication. Failure to follow the written directions that the doctor (one who endured about 13 years of medical school training) wrote out concerning your individual medical treatment, will result in the medication not working as prescribed. If your medication gives a date to start taking those pills, then start taking those pills on that date.
