Prescription Drug Commercials

[WoVeU]

Are you kidding me with these commercials? Half of the country is going nuts about cigarettes (I should be going nuts because they have ruined them.) The majority is going crazy about street drugs. Then they let these Narcotic Companies, I mean Pharmaceutical Companies, hock there junk and fixes on TV.

But above it all you have to love the side effects portion of the program. Seriously, seriously, seriously...you have to be kidding...I usually laugh my kidneys off! The side effects you MAY get make the original problem look like a hang nail!
And of late I have heard of a few people I know or my family knows who just quit all the scripts and are doing much better! This stuff too, is out of hand!

Agreed.

I am going to be scoring an independent feature film later this year titled "Standard American Diet". It is about how Americans have become chemically dependent.

Little bit of a side note...I love the commercials that are put out my lawyers looking to sue the drug companies. I saw one recently that had me rolling in the floor. It said if you had taken the drug (????? can't remember the name) and you or a loved one died then please call this number. I almost called...I was going to inform them that the drug did indeed killed me. My wife thought I heard the commercial wrong...but it played several more times and I did hear it right.

Was it Vioxx?

BTW, I Googled and at least one other person said the same thing. I am pretty sure I heard the same thing but it was more than 6 weeks ago, I think it was a Vioxx commercial.

Ambulance chasers. Part of the problem IMO.

Don't know if you guys get it where you're at...but we get the Binder & BInder commercials where the guy is in a cowboy hat, and the backdrop is New York City. Hello?? NYC?? Cowboy Hat?

Do they do this for fun?? Is the joke really on us??

The joke is all on us...some of us just ain't laughing. Lawyers, guns, and money....2 out of 3 ain't bad. Guns and money ain't bad, depending whose hands their in. Now take a lawyer, by the neck, shake liberally and hold for 2 minutes....ain't bad in hands like that either!
