#1 This could mean that billions will be wasted on the additional costs for prescription drugs in instances when OTC medicines could be just as safe and effective at treating the illness.

Too late for the 1 million self medicating occasional asthma sufferers who now (unnecessarily) go to the doctor to get a prescription inhaler because the Feds and environmentalists have turned nonprescription inhalers into crap.

#2 I always keep three or more bottles of Aspirin, tylenol, baking soda (Stomach acid instant killer) and whatever else we use regularly, such s underarm deodorant, Mouthwash etc,
I just consider it part of our "Pantry".

(Y'all who don't have any idea what's a Pantry, its a store, or stock so you don't have to shop so often or so much, if something we eat is on sale I'll get as many as prctical and store it for hard times, whatever happens, we'll eat.)

If you don't have one, any closet near the kitchen will do fine, just put some colapsable shelves inside and you're in business.
