False. There are people who overuse OTC (Over the counter) as well as prescription medicines, People become dependent on laxatives, antihistamines (for sleep), cold medicines, and pain killers. People convince doctors they need prescriptions by describing symptoms and claiming OTC medicines don't help. Just taking some extra cough medicines and Tylenol (acetaminophen) doses can lead to an acetaminophen overdose that can lead to kidney damage or failure, and death.
