Dr.OTC to the Rescue!

*This is a sponsored post. All my opinions are my own and not swayed by outside sources.*

Over the counter drugs are great for minor colds and bugs. The problem is there are so many. Dr.OTC helps you navigate over the counter options.

unnamed I’m not a fan of going to the doctor. It takes time and effort that I can devote to other things. If I’m not running a fever, I opt for over the counter medications to help me and my children get through the yucky times.

 

Over the Counter is Great for Minor Ailments 

If I or my kids don’t have something dire like an infection or an emergency, going to the doctor is pointless. They’ll only tell me to get over the counter medications for whatever ailment we might be suffering from. So why waste the time, effort, and money when I can just hit the over the counter aisle to begin with?

 

Here’s the thing about the over the counter aisle, though. It has a lot of stuff. I mean A LOT. Sometimes I know I need something, but I don’t know what. That’s where Dr.OTC comes in.

Dr.OTC Makes Over the Counter Simple 

We all know that there are literally hundreds of over the counter medications and products for everything from cold and flu symptoms to warts. With so many available, it’s hard to know what I need. Dr.OTC is an awesome app available in the App Store that narrows it down for me based on my symptoms and recommends products for me to use. I love it because it makes feeling better quick and easy.

This is what makes Dr.OTC such a great app. It covers hundreds of common ailments and helps me find the right over the counter treatment for them.

 

Dr.OTC Features

Dr.OTC not only helps me navigate the huge amount of over the counter options available, it also makes it simple. It has a very user friendly interface. That’s great because when I need to use this app, I’m probably going to be feeling like garbage. That is not when I want to be navigating a difficult app.

    This is a great app to check out what may be going on with your child and especially handy in the middle of the night or off hours. Good to know that there is help at your fingertips!

    Well that’s a cool app!
    I too never go to the doctors. I usually treat with homeopathy, juicing(ginger!), teas and chicken bone broth 🙂

    Great app! I think a lot of parents can benefit from this and make them aware of the symptoms their children present.

    It does sound great for giving direction on what to buy. I bet we could benefit from it here too.

    Hmm, I can see how this could come in pretty handy. I usually wind up standing in the aisles trying to choose something & having no idea what’s best.
