Usage notes
- Use rimedio for a solution to a problem too, not just health: trovare un rimedio, porre rimedio a qualcosa.
- Medicine in everyday speech is often medicina or farmaco; rimedio sounds broader, often home, temporary, or problem-solving.
- Common pattern: porre rimedio a + noun. Learners often wrongly use per after rimedio in this expression.
