2 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "After talking to the client, I went for "pharmacy case study", so a mix of several answers, but it was this one that made me see what the French term was getting at."

case study

Seems to fit but I'm really not sure, there are relatively few hits on Google for it!

In the hits I did find, the term is generally followed by a (usually) fictitious scenario where someone must decide on the most appropriate course of action, which would appear to confirm my suspicion (rather like the context in which you have come across it).

thanks, Sue!
agree Michael Barnett : My only misgiving about this is that "over the counter" has an alternate meaning (OTC as in non-prescription drug), so does it mean a discussion over the counter, or a discussion of an OTC product?

thanks, Michael - adding "study", as Sue suggested, should clarify it
