It is always important to read the back of any over-the-counter package ? the "Drug Facts" label ? BEFORE you make your purchase. This is to ensure you match the proper active ingredient to help with your particular symptom. The back of the package will also list any product warnings or side effects that may present a health risk or interrupt your day, such as drowsiness, or the opposite, hyperactivity that will interfere with sleep.
Knowing how to read the "Drug Facts" label will make you a more informed shopper. Once you know the active ingredient to combat your symptoms, you will find that advertised brands and store brands are almost identical in many ways.
If you have any questions, your pharmacist would be happy to help.
