Una = one. unas/unos = some, so una medicine = one medicine, and unas medicinas = some medicine.
Medicina vs medicinas
Exercise in Level 4, unit 10 translates "(I) had to take some medicine to feel better" to "Tuve que tomar unas medicinas para sentirme mejor."
This sounds like they are taking some of more than one medicine. How do you differentiate taking some of more than one medicine (e.g., Tylenol + Sudafed + Benadryl)), as opposed to taking some of only one medication (e.g., Tylenol only)?

Hi Lancent, in Spanish there is a plural form for "medicina", so you'd say "una medicina" when referring to one medicine and "unas medicinas", "algunas medicinas" "dos medicinas" etc to refer to more than one medicine.
