Key Highlights
Young adults are most likely to be concerned about cold/flu. This is likely to be for two main reasons: cold and flu are likely to affect those of school or working age more, since it affects their ability to work or study; and older consumers likely have more pressing long-term health concerns to worry about, that surpass cold or flu worries.
Just over a quarter (26%) of consumers globally claim that "natural" or organic ingredients have a high amount of influence over their choice of non-prescription medication. "Natural" ingredients are highly influential for more shoppers in other personal care categories such as skincare (36%).
