Pain Care

Pain is both a sensory and an emotional experience, felt through unconscious body functions as well as psychological and behavioral reactions. It is subjective and individual, influenced by factors such as emotions, mood, and even genetics -> Pain is personal.

There are various triggers of Pain which could be environmental & lifestyle stimuli (e.g., accidents/overexertion, stress, poor posture) or physiological & medical stimuli (e.g., fever, menstruation, arthritis). Unlike other categories, nearly everyone experiences pain from time to time, 86% of consumers took action, and 50% of the time they used a medicinal or OTC type of remedy. In pain episodes like body pain or headaches, frequent sufferers are more likely to use multiple OTC products to treat their pain, which makes Pain Care one of the largest categories in Consumer Healthcare today, and the 2nd largest category for Sanofi.
