    Yeah even OTC drugs aren’t necessarily safe to take daily and indefinitely. Depending on the medication, you can end up with things like stomach ulcers or even liver damage. Once in a while is fine, but if you’re needing to take something daily, you might want to get checked out and/or try some sort of other methods.

      the thing is, medicine specifically comes with instructions for this reason. Stay within the written limits and you should be fine.
