Analgesics in Germany

After the packaging size of paracetamol to be sold for self-medication was restricted to 10g per package in 2009, there have been further discussions to do the same for other analgesic products. Suggestions were made to restrict the OTC packaging size of aspirin to 10g per package, ibuprofen to 8g per package and diclofenac to 500mg per package. Packages with larger quantities would be classified as prescription medication.
