Over-the-counter (OTC) drugs are medicines sold directly to a consumer without a prescription from a healthcare professional, as compared to prescription drugs, which may be sold only to consumers possessing a valid prescription. In many countries, OTC drugs are selected by a regulatory agency to ensure that they are ingredients that are safe and effective when used without a physician's care.

Calcium is a mineral element necessary to maintain electrolytic balance and proper functioning of many regulatory mechanisms. Calcium insufficiency is associated with neuromuscular disorders and bone demineralisation. Calcium increases the effectiveness of leukocytes, increases phagocytosis and has an exudative effect on the capillaries during cold weather. Taking calcium increases its concentration in serum and in the whole body. 99% of calcium in the body is bound with phosphates in bones, mainly as hydroxyapatite.
Kalcium glukonat is indicated as additional treatment to the osteoporosis of different ethiology (postmenopausal osteoporosis, senile osteoporosis, osteoporosis induced by corticosteroids, gastrectomy or immobilization); prophylaxis of bone demineralisation before, during or after menopause; additional medication in rickets or osteomalacia; latent tetany (in acute cases calcium gluconate is used parenterally); in case of increased needs for calcium during pregnancy and breast feeding, as well as in the period of growth (childhood, adolescence); allergic condition (as additional treatment).

The antihistamines reduce or inhibit the main actions of histamine in the organism through the reversible and competitive block of the histamine receptors; they do not disactivate histamine or do not prevent its synthesis or release. Mebhidroline presents antimuscarinic, serotonine antagonist properties and local anaesthetic effects. It is used for the symptomatic relief of hypersensitivity reactions, including urticaria and angioedema, rhinitis and conjunctivitis. It is considered as ineffective in asthma.

Adrenaline is an endogenous substance that is produced in the adrenal medulla and has important physiological effects. It is a potent agonist at both alpha and beta adrenoceptors, although the effect on beta adrenoceptors is more marked, particularly at lower doses.
The major effects of adrenaline are dose-related and include:
dilatation of the bronchi, narrowing of blood vessels, increased heart rate and contractility (positive chronotropic and inotropic effect) and stimulation at central level. Adrenaline is a histamine antagonist. It is used for the treatment of life emergencies.
Adrenaline is used in acute allergic reactions and anaphylactic shock.
It is also used in advanced cardiac life support.
