Drug companies got tired of doctors not promoting their meds for whatever reason, so they went to tv ads, i.e., If your doctor hasn’t prescribed our product, you are not getting good advice.
Which leads us to the next leading tv promo: If you took [name the med] and had the following side effects, you can become part of our class action law suit [and maybe win a lot of money].
And the bottom line for almost every TV ad department has been really in the black ever since. Supports lots of really old tv series and theater movies.
A-a-a-h profit. The magic elixir. Makes the wheels go round.
@proclusstudent — an ad. for ParacetamoxyfrusebendroneomycinThere are some minor side effects and some are not that rare like nausea, vomiting, becoming gay and growing extra breasts . . .
there is a reason the side effects sound like auctioneer training and are OVER half the commercial; it’s because that chemical concoction is GOOd for you, am I right?

A medication sounds good until they rattle off the possible side effects.

A side effect caused by exposure to way too much TV.

I think the number of countries that allow advertisements for prescription medication on TV is… 2.
