Are you overdosed? Please go to ER now, Jane.
I miss those ads where lightning bolts shoot into your body parts. Or from them. Not sure. Bring them back.
Just the ota ones.Go cold turkey. throw out the TV.
LOL Try watching programs on any of the channels that are over the air broadcasts (ABC, CBS, FOX local stations, NBC, Independent local stations) and notice how many of the ads are for prescription drugs and/or other medical treatment and you might feel you are getting an overdose.
Just the ota ones.
FDA allowed big pharma to ads on TV since mid 1990s, I think so.
There are a lot of big pharma ads on cable channels, especially adults.
I have cable and these ads come on at every commercial (or almost)...It's nuts...(the side-effects). I'm very anti-drug/pill...and question any prescription I'm given by the doctor..."do I really need this"?.....and 9x out of 10...I don't!...Some people are so gullible...thinking there is a "pill or drug" for every little thing....Got gas?...there's a pull for that...constipated?...a pill for that...upset tummy?...a pill for that..list goes on and on.
And boy did they take over since then. A matter of being willing to pay more to advertise than other advertisers?
"Ask your doctor if this is right for you."
Analogous story- I had a gum inflammation between 2 molars where a sliver had lodged (whole wheat!). My dentist said, "Well the space between those teeth has grown so much the only remedy is 2 crowns so I can close the gap. That's funny, I thought, never had a problem before the sliver, so I asked him to clean it well and I'd wait and see in case it improved on it's own. "until the next time, when of course I'd have you do crowns (bow scrape and fawn)." Within 2 days the problem was history.
