109Second, the distinction between medicinal products which are subject to prescription and those which are not, which is based on those criteria and which thus concerns the potential danger of the product concerned, is applied in the Community rules concerning advertising for medicinal products. As pointed out in paragraphs 7 to 13 of this judgment, advertising of prescription medicines is prohibited (Article 88(1) of the Community Code), whilst, in general, advertising of medicinal products intended and designed for use without the intervention of a medical practitioner is permitted, provided that certain conditions are complied with (see Article 88(2) of the Community Code).
