Use the tranwrd() function.

a=lowcase("New OTC Or Rx drug added");

a=lowcase("New OTC Or Rx drug added");

This changes all capitals to lowercase, which is not what the OP intended.

27         data exp;
28         a=lowcase("New OTC Or Rx drug added");
29         put a=;
30         run;

a=new otc or rx drug added
