They do prescribe it here, though. If you’re sick for work for something minor, you might get a prescription for painkillers, which in turn drives the price down to 1/4th of the OTC price. 😉
It ends up prescribed commonly in the US too, which may make some difference in the price depending on insurance, though from what I hear anectdotally unfortunately not often for OTC meds. Truthfully idk because we don’t have time to memorize that additional, inconsistent, constantly-changing layer of bureaucracy on the US healthcare shit-sandwich. Safety-net hospitals usually have people whose whole job is to help with stuff like this though
