The Pennsylvania Pharmacists Association (PPA) recently named the University of Pittsburgh the 2016 Champions of the annual OTC Competition sponsored by NASPA during PPA’s Mid-Year Conference held at the Best Western Premier The Central Hotel & Conference Center on January 30th in Harrisburg, Pa. Played much like the game show Jeopardy with a touch of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, the Self-Care Championship is a nation-wide competition among pharmacy students, designed to test their knowledge of OTC products and home remedies. All seven Pennsylvania schools of pharmacy had a team participate. The H2P OTC Team (self titled) consisted of Class of 2018 members Marissa Badzik, Nicolette Diehl, and Justin Saver. These students did an excellent job and edged out their competitors in the final question. Great work and Congratulations H2P OTC!
