The last one that I saw, the list of things that make all of the side effects worse (don’t take if) sounded the same as the list my doctors are currently developing. On the bright side, the dermatologist says nothing looks malignant, so I still have something to keep the worn out stuff in.
I do long for a return of the days when medications couldn’t be advertised). Come to think of it, I’d appreciate a return to the days when lawyers couldn’t advertise either.
I guess that’s supposed to be funny. In a strange time, in a strange world, pharma advertising is the strangest thing around… Only two countries allow it, and the other is New Zealand.

If a drug can’t be sold over the counter. It shouldn’t be allowed to advertise.

I’ve never “asked my doctor if this drug is right for me”. I tell them if I’m having problems, and see what they suggest.

If one of the side effects is death, then something else better be killing me before I take it.

One of the side effects is death. I loved the commercials that said that if you die, you should get in touch with your family doctor immediately.

Don’t forget the possible side effect of death, that they quickly gloss over…

And guys, remember to tell your doctor if you are pregnant or are planning to be pregnant.

It’s ANOTHER reason meds are so expensive. Advertising is not cheap.
