2020 IMPACT

Sales rise with cough/cold remedies believed to treat some symptoms of COVID-19

Cough, cold and allergy (hay fever) remedies was already enjoying strong demand prior to the outbreak of COVID-19, with consumers typically self-medicating against mild symptoms of cold and flu. With many of the symptoms of COVID-19 being similar to those of cold and flu consumers started stockpiling cough/cold remedies when COVID-19 first appeared in the country.

Codeine containing OTC cough, cold and allergy (hay fever) remedies switched to prescription-only status

While COVID-19 helped to drive increased demand for some cough, cold and allergy (hay fever) remedies in 2020, the category also suffered a setback with products containing codeine switched to prescription medicines. Results from recent research highlighted the danger to health from long-term use of codeine, with it also being found to develop dependency due to the feelings of euphoria created in some users.
