Why do we put up with this? Drug/adds OP ED
#9
RE: Why do we put up with this? Drug/adds OP ED
Well, I think that the underlying position is that they should wait until they're "more sure" before they release or advertise....and I say "more sure" because we have been putting increasingly stringent requirements on drug manufacturers (granted, it's a back and forth between industry and regulation - industry keeps innovating, regulation plays catch up).

-just occurred to me

OTOH, the way it used to be was that drugs manufacturers advertised almost exclusively to doctors.  That might sound better...doctors being informed professionals....but, uh...the relationship between doctors and pharma reps doesn't exactly instill me with confidence, lol.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
