SANTA MONICA, Calif. — Betr Remedies’ full line of O-T-C products are now available in 2,000 Walmart stores across the United States, marking the first-time the items are available on store shelves.

The over-the-counter medicine brand co-founded by Ellen Pompeo includes a buy-one, give-one program, design-forward packaging and focuses on making medication accessible across the country.
“Jen Hoffman, Livio Bisterzo and I co-founded Betr Remedies on the idea that quality healthcare is a right all people deserve access to,” says Pompeo, “With Betr Remedies, we exist to serve everyone, so we’re thrilled to collaborate with Walmart and be available to millions of their consumers across the country, giving them the chance to make a difference through their purchasing power.”
Manufactured in the U.S., Betr Remedies said its curated, easy-to-shop product line includes over 15 SKUs across pain, allergy, digestive health, and cold and flu categories, as well as supplements for immunity and hydration. The company said every product contains the same FDA-authorized ingredients as leading brands and every Betr Remedies product purchased helps keep medications out of landfills and helps it get into the hands of people who need it most.
Betr Remedies said it exists with the mission to create a better way, one that is sustainable, ethical and improves access to medication with their buy-one, give-one component managed through SIRUM, a national nonprofit that enables health care organizations to donate unused medications through select charitable pharmacies in underserved communities across the country.
“As we continue to enhance our over-the-counter offerings, we are thrilled to collaborate with Betr Remedies as their first retail partner and bring Betr Remedies products exclusively to our stores and online, making it more convenient for customers to get the products they need during their weekly shopping trips,” says Maya Bowie, merchandising vice president of wellness for Walmart. “Betr Remedies and Walmart are both focused on improving health equity and access in America. Our scale, combined with Betr Remedies brand purpose, will help make a positive impact.”
