Medicines - classic pharmacy

Over-the-counter (OTC) medicines are medicines for self-medication that are considered safe, suitable for use and do not need to be supervised and prescribed by a healthcare professional or doctor. They can be purchased over the counter. The purpose of medicines (drugs, remedies) is that the ingredients they contain act on the human body to cure or prevent symptoms and diseases. Medicines can be supplied in various forms, for example in the form of ointments, powders, tablets, capsules, drops, injections, etc.

These medicines have a wide range of applications:

  • Painkillers for headaches, fever, mild to moderate pain
  • Respiratory diseases such as colds, allergies, coughs, sore throats, catarrh, rhinosinusitis, sinusitis
  • Inflammation of the mouth and throat, conjunctivitis
  • Digestive problems, abdominal pain, heartburn, flatulence, diarrhoea
  • Wound and fungal infections, sports injuries, venous diseases, skin diseases
  • sleep problems
  • and much more.
It is important to always read the package leaflet before taking any medication. Possible interactions with other medicines and certain foods and stimulants (e.g. alcohol, nicotine, dairy products) must also be taken into account. Certain medicines can also reduce the patient's ability to react. For this reason, high-risk sports, the operation of dangerous machinery or driving should be avoided.

Well-known manufacturers of over-the-counter medicines include Bayer, Ratiopharm, Sanofi-Aventis, Sanova, Johnson & Johnson, Sigmapharma, Reckitt-Benckiser, Meda Pharma, Mylan, Takeda and many more.

The instructions for use, doctor or pharmacist will provide information on the effects and possible undesirable side effects.
