To encourage consumers to consult with their pharmacists in connection
with the purchase and use of over-the-counter drug products.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
MAY 15, 1997
Mr. CRAPO (for himself, Mr. BERRY, and Mr. WATKINS) submitted the
following resolution; which was referred to the Committee on Commerce
RESOLUTION
To encourage consumers to consult with their pharmacists
in connection with the purchase and use of over-the-
counter drug products.
Resolved,
SECTION 1. FINDINGS.
The Congress finds the following:
(1) The Food and Drug Administration has
proposed that the content and format of over-the-
counter (OTC) drug product labels be made more
user-friendly to help consumers better understand
how to properly use these medications.
(2) Almost 60 percent of total OTC drug prod-
uct sales of $20,000,000,000 are made by commu-
•HRES 151 IH
nity retail pharmacies, where a pharmacist is avail-
able for consultation with the consumer about the
product.
(3) A significant number of potent prescription
medications have been switched to OTC status over
the last few years and others are likely to be
switched over the next few years. Many consumers
may be unaware of the potential problems that may
occur when OTC and prescription drugs are inap-
propriately used together, and should be encouraged
to consult with their doctor and pharmacist. The
pharmacist may have the only complete record of all
the medications being taken by the consumer that
would help avoid these problems.
(4) Pharmacists can help the consumer select
the most cost-effective OTC drug product based on
the symptoms presented to the pharmacist.
(5) Interaction with the pharmacist on using
OTC drug product is particularly important for
older Americans, who already use one-third of all
prescription drug products and one-third of OTC
drug products. As the population ages, older Ameri-
cans are expected to use almost half of all OTC drug
products by the year 2000. According to recent stud-
ies, the health care system, including the Medicaid
•HRES 151 IH
and Medicare programs, incur billions of dollars in
unnecessary costs each year as a result of medica-
tion-related problems.
(6) The importance of consumer interaction
with the pharmacist about OTC drug products was
recognized by Congress when it required that Medic-
aid prospective drug utilization review programs in-
clude screening for ‘‘serious interactions with non-
prescription or OTC medications’’.
(7) Encouraging pharmacist interaction with
consumers on OTC drug products is consistent with
recent attempts by consumer groups, the pharmacy
community, and the Food and Drug Administration
to increase the quality and quantity of written and
oral information being provided to consumers with
their prescription medications.
SEC. 2. CONSULTATION.
It is the sense of the House of Representatives that
the Secretary of Health and Human Services should take
such action as may be appropriate to encourage consumers
to consult with their pharmacists in connection with the
purchase and use of over-the-counter drug products.
