Marty Makary: We Need More Drugs to Be “Over-the-Counter”

Marty Makary, 27th Commissioner of the U.S. FDA, shared a post on X:

“We need more drugs to be ‘over-the-counter’ (no prescription required).

  • More price transparency = more competition and LOWER DRUG PRICES
  • A prescription is necessary for some meds, but for others that are safe, the Rx just adds cost and inconvenience.
  • FDA will be cutting red tape to deliver safer and affordable OTC drugs!”
