According to @mcuban, OTC loratadine shows a wide retail price dispersion: Loratadine 10 mg 90 tablets at Cost Plus Drugs is $7.06, while Claritin 10 mg 100 tablets on Amazon is $47.99, and a non-brand OTC option is quoted at $7.99 in the same post (source: @mcuban on X, Dec 6, 2025). According to @mcuban, these figures imply roughly $0.078 per pill for the Cost Plus Drugs generic versus about $0.48 per pill for Amazon’s branded Claritin, quantifying an approximately 6x channel price differential that is directly relevant for price-comparison and retail mix analysis (source: @mcuban on X, Dec 6, 2025). According to @GeBaiDC, once loratadine became OTC, the per-pill cost fell from about $1.10 to about $0.23, and the thread argues that generic drugs should not be covered by insurance, underscoring payer-policy considerations that can shape out-of-pocket purchasing behavior in OTC categories (source: @GeBaiDC thread cited by @mcuban on X, Dec 6, 2025). According to the source, the posts do not mention cryptocurrencies or blockchain, indicating no direct crypto-market catalyst in the cited material (source: @mcuban and @GeBaiDC on X, Dec 6, 2025).
