Rationale: Other ingredients mixed with a drug to create a "medicine" are focused primarily on ensuring the medicine's stability. Its effectiveness is controlled by the amount of active ingredient(s), not by the other ingredients mixed with it. Its color and odor are not important considerations in a medicine's desired effectiveness, but stability most definitely is.
