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.
