    How Kiwi-Owned US Pharmaceutical Company Healthtex Launches OTC Products in America Tim O’Donoghue is the co-founder of Healthtex, a Kiwi-owned US pharmaceutical company built around a simple but powerful idea: listen closely to what customers actually say. Tim explains how decades of pharmacy conversations led to Asteroid, an over-the-counter (OTC) haemorrhoid product designed from real customer feedback, and how Healthtex is now navigating FDA listings, Amazon reviews, ecommerce, crowdfunding and the challenge of taking on far larger pharmaceutical competitors in the United States.
