As I'm sure you know there are tons of other medications that can cause that too not just "grandfathered" ones, but it's extremely rare. It's not why those drugs are not OTC. I even asked the FDA - it's about money, and nothing else (like Nexium). > Doesn't look like its OTC except for cats and dogs. My mistake. But there are other azole's that are OTC. > Have you looked at I did, it was a poor choice of wording - I meant worse as in likelihood * harm.
