Over-the-counter (OTC) medicines are drugs that are available without a prescription. Some OTC medicines are used to relieve aches, pains, and itches. Some prevent or cure diseases such as tooth decay and athlete's foot. Other OTC health products may help to manage recurring problems such as migraines and allergies. They are safe and effective when followed as directed by the directions on the label and as directed by a healthcare professional. Generic and brand name products for allergy, sinus, cold and flu, pain relief, home health care and daily living, support braces and wraps, dental and oral health, eye and ear care, first aid, smoking cessation, diabetes care, foot care, digestive health, incontinence, skin care, sleep aids, and vitamins are among the categories of covered OTC items. The benefits of using OTC over prescription drugs include easy accessibility, lower costs, convenience, and customer-empowering qualities. In turn, these factors contribute to increase adherence to therapy, with a positive impact on disease outcomes, healthcare costs and resource consumption.
