Summary 1 Research Sources

In Uruguay, adults generally consume OTC products without asking for a doctor’s advice. By contrast, when it comes to children’s pains or illnesses, parents generally ask for a professional’s advice before giving remedies to their children. However, visiting a doctor is time-consuming, and some children’s illnesses and pains heal in time without consuming any remedies. Sales of paediatric consumer health products are much lower than those of adults, and this is the smallest OTC category.
