As drugs near the end of their patent, pharmaceutical companies may apply for the drug to change to over-the-counter status in order to:
 
  1. Get a new patent for the over-the-counter form of the drug
  2. Lower the costs because most prescription benefit plans do not cover generics
  3. Market the drug to a whole new population, as they are able to market to patients instead of just providers
  4. Continue to make large profits from their blockbuster brand-name drug
