OTC is an abbreviation for "Over-the-counter" which means medications you can purchase inside the pharmacy or drug-store without the need for a doctors prescription. Penicillin requires a prescription to obtain due to the fact it has a high potential for allergic reaction and can counter-act with so many medications.

Any antibiotics should be taken under the advice and care of a medical professional.
