I just found a job as an OTC clinical pharmaceutical representative in a foreign company. I would like to know the differences between it and a prescription drug clinical representative, such as development, remuneration, and work.

OTC, first you have to understand what OTC means. Over-the-counter medicines. That means it is mainly engaged in drug store sales. To give a very simple example, for example, the diclofenac we use to treat athlete's foot is an OTC drug from Xi'an Janssen. OTC representatives are mainly responsible for sales in pharmacies, while clinical representatives are mainly responsible for sales of over-the-counter drugs in hospitals. The two operating models are completely different. Relatively speaking, my personal opinion is that being a clinical representative has better development prospects. Because OTC promotion is more complicated. Of course the treatment is better on the clinical side. After all, the support fees provided by the company are high because the foreign company's focus is on hospitals.
