Class 1 Medications are described as which type?

• A. Over-The-Counter (no approval needed)
• B. Requires a prescription
• C. No ETP/Waiver Required
• D. Prohibited for flight crew

Answer: (A)

Class 1 medications are over-the-counter items you can obtain and use without a prescription or special clearance. This means they’re intended for minor issues and don’t require medical authorization to fly. Remember, even OTC drugs can affect performance (some cause drowsiness or slowed reaction), so choose options that won’t impair your ability to operate aircraft. Medications that require a prescription or a flight-medical waiver aren’t in this class, and drugs prohibited for flight crew are excluded as well.
