English term

behind the counter

English to Italian Medical Medical: Pharmaceuticals
I am familiar with "over the counter", and I understood what this expression probably means but I'm searching for an "official" translation (if there is one):
"The dual status of levonorgestrel-only EC necessitates that products be kept within the pharmacy or behind the counter."
"The dual-labeled, behind-the-counter labeling launched with the approval of XXX was the first time the FDA had approved the same product package for both OTC and prescription-only use."
"The CARE program specifies that Emercency Contraceptives is to be sold only from behind the counter in the pharmacy and not be available through nonpharmacy retail outlets."

The agency this week floated a proposal to create a new category of drugs – stronger than over-the-counter medication but available without a prescription. Under the plan, these drugs could be purchased only after consultation with a pharmacist.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- Led by the emergency contraceptive Plan B, a new class of drugs called "behind-the-counter" is entering the FDA's spotlight.

As its name suggests, the behind-the-counter class, or BTC, resides in a pharmaceutical limbo between over-the-counter and prescription. Prescription drugs require a visit to the doctor's office, while over-the-counter drugs can be purchased right off the pharmacy shelves.

Behind-the-counter drugs require a green light from a pharmacist, but not a physician, before they are purchased.

farmaci su prescrizione

vendibili solo in farmacia

credo che questa formulazione possa esprimere il concetto di farmaci che non possono essere venduti altrove, benché non necessitino strettamente della prescrizione medica. Rientrano in questa categoria anche alcuni preparati ormonali. Buona serata!
