No mods or custom content used. Just expansions and stuff packs.

I've had this issue on computers that have been upgraded. The only thing I can order on those computers are the voidcritter packs. I've worked around it using the bb.showhiddenobjects cheat because Medicine is in the debug items. I put a shelf in one of the bathrooms and stocked it with several bottles of medicine (which I kinda like now). I'd be curious if the OP can state whether their computer was upgraded or not. Of course, the other issue is the handiness upgrade objects that I can't order either. I'll have to check later and see if they're also available in the debug items.

Computer was not upgraded. Tried on several different computers just to be sure.
EDIT: With a new save file I got all ordering options back using a Deskblock Computer. bought three others, problem started again after buying the Immersive Bend computer.

Now that you mention it, I was using the Immersive Bend computers as well. Good catch.

@JazzyTrait were any other interactions missing apart from order medicine?
November 2016
I didn't notice it until they came back, but yes. The only options available were to buy Voidcritter packs.

@JazzyTrait Would you be happy to provide a save?

Yea, I'd be glad to. I'm not sure how to do so, though.
