    You can use something like this to get the item with the most prescriptions:

    select max(GenericCount)
from
(
    select count(*) GenericCount, GenericName
    from yourtable
    group by GenericName
) x

    If you want to see the number each one is prescribed, then use:

        select count(*) GenericCount, GenericName
    from yourtable
    group by GenericName
