Furthermore, changes in cultural attitudes regarding self-medications required for minor health problems, affordability of over-the-counter drugs, savings enabled by the usage of over the counter drugs, convenience of direct purchase, high adoption and acceptance in developing markets, and innovations and developments in global pharmaceutical drugs industry are other factors driving the growth of over the counter drugs.
