Any one else fed up with Big Pharma ads on TV?

Asked by NoMoreY_Aagain (1330points) December 24th, 2019

Always pushing their newest poison for the latest ailment. Cures one health issue and creates five more. “Allergic to milk but can’t stop drinking it? Ask your doctor about ‘Milk Away’. Curbs the desire for milk in 9 out of 10 patients. Side effects include but aren’t limited to, blindness, bleeding from the ears, and sudden death. If you experience and erection lasting more than 3 weeks stop taking Milk Away and consult your doctor immediately.”

Nope. I’m annoyed with a lot of things about big pharma, but since I think a lot of doctors are lacking in medication knowledge, I don’t mind the average consumer being told what drugs are out there via ads and commercials. I do mind expensive brochures given to doctors, and money spent on lunches for doctors, and fancy trips paid for by big pharma to sell their drugs.

Personally, I find it insane, that it is even legal.
