Pharmacist’s Guide to Over-the-Counter Remedies | Evidence-Based PDF for Headache, Allergies, Digestion

Trusted, evidence-based pharmacist guide to over-the-counter remedies for pain, allergies, heartburn, constipation, diarrhea, and nausea.

If you’ve ever stood in the pharmacy aisle confused by hundreds of products, this guide is for you. Written by board-certified clinical pharmacists, it cuts through the marketing noise to give you clear, evidence-based answers about what works, what doesn’t, and how to use remedies safely for you and your family.

Allergy Relief: The real difference between Claritin, Zyrtec, Allegra, and Benadryl. When to use nasal sprays vs. pills.

Heartburn & Indigestion: Antacids vs. H2 blockers vs. PPIs — which works fastest, which works longest, and when to avoid.

Constipation & Diarrhea: Evidence-backed remedies, from Miralax to Senokot, Pepto-Bismol, and loperamide. Plus what home remedies actually work.

Nausea & Upset Stomach: Ginger, Emetrol, motion-sickness aids, and safe remedies for pregnancy.

Supplements & Natural Remedies: Ashwagandha, berberine, turmeric, probiotics — what the science says vs. the hype.
