Over the Counter Drugs Market Opportunity Assessment by Infiniti Research – A Pharmaceutical Industry Case Study

Sep 21, 2018

Over the Counter Drugs Market Overview

Over the counter drugs are primarily used to treat conditions that do not require direct consultation of a doctor. The strong growth of over the counter drugs is anticipated due to the increase in healthcare industries and growth in the investment of government to develop healthcare industries. Additionally, the over-the-counter drugs market in countries such as India, China, and Brazil are proliferating owing to the increase in awareness among the population about the use of over the counter drugs to treat negligible health issues. Furthermore, changes in cultural attitudes regarding self-medication required for minor health problems, affordability of over-the-counter drugs, savings enabled by the usage of over the counter drugs, the convenience of direct purchase, high adoption and acceptance in developing markets, and innovations and developments in the global pharmaceutical drugs industry are other factors driving the growth of over the counter drugs.
