Yes! I always find it hilarious to pay so much for allergy tablets or other things of that nature when I'm in Germany. Part of it, I think, is an effort to avoid having tons of pills laying around all the time. To think... There must be thousands of lethal doses of all sorts of medications strewn throughout my neighborhood (in the US). That's a scary thought. Germany is probably a bit different. Also, apologies — I edited my comment for brevity so the information about my family member's nationality no longer appears.
