摘要
A method of administering an over the counter drug for treatment of a chronic medical condition to a patient is provided wherein a drug label for over-the-counter treatment of a chronic medical condition is created which requires a new patient to take an initial point-of-service diagnostic test to determine whether the patient suffers from the condition treated by the drug and requires patients already receiving the drug on an over-the-counter basis to take one or more follow up point-of-service diagnostic tests to determine whether the patient is benefiting from the drug and are not experiencing undue side effects. Patients determined eligible to take the drug may then be provided with a random access code for use in association with a lockable, electromechanical cabinet by means of which the patient can receive an appropriate dose of the drug to treat the patient's chronic medical condition. In certain embodiments, a follow up point-of-service diagnostic test determines whether the patient is experiencing any undue side effects from the drug. In further embodiments, a national patient registry for containing the point of service diagnostic test results is created for access by appropriate health care professionals.
