What do you do with them? I'd guess the total lifetime consumption of any medicine for me and my family is less than 500 pills, a pack of 20 can last more than a year because it's not that often that any of it is needed, and when something happens, you take them for a couple of days and that's it. Do many people in USA pop painkillers or paracetamol or aspirin daily?
