Real added value for consumers with the over-the-counter medicine reform

The Finnish Commerce Federation is aiming for an over-the-counter medicine reform that genuinely benefits customers and creates better conditions for lower prices. Introducing a range that meets consumers’ needs for over-the counter medicines within the scope of the geographically comprehensive network and extensive opening hours of commerce sector companies would improve the accessibility of medicines. A wide range of over-the-counter medicines has long been sold from medicine cabinets in shops. The reform should take advantage of these medicine cabinets and the experience gained from them.
