I agree. I think No. 3 would need some additional features to work. First, producers would need some sort of licensing to assure quality control. Pharmacies would also need to at least be licensed as a "reseller" to avoid hoarding, i.e. only licensee resellers would be allowed to dispense.

A middle ground for three would be to allow those with chronic conditions to be cleared for otc, i.e. those familiar with their medication and conditions, while limiting access for acute treatment, except antibiotics should be otc (typically this would fall under acute condition)

I would add a no. 4: The right to acquire labs / blood tests without a doctor's order.
