Prescription Medicine Ads
Why would a prescription medication need an ad on TV? To attract people to the medicine of course. This European questions that method if the person ultimately deciding and writing the prescription is a professional who spent years upon years learning and studying. So, why target the public?
Now that this person mentions it, it is quite weird. We would like to think that medicines are chosen and prescribed by doctors based on what that person actually needs, but doctors are not immune to feeling pressured by medical salespersons as well. Will this information give you pause next time you are at the pharmacy?
