Those Jardiance commercials are like a screwdriver thru my temple.

It’s sad how many people would rather take a pill instead of picking up a weight

When trump makes rfk the president of the fda I hope he fixes it with his “squats not docs” program

Big Pharma spends something like 45% of their revenue on advertising and sales. R&D is reported to be a whopping 5-7% - I bet this number is exaggerated, too.

That’s the payoff for controlling their version of the news.

You’d be surprised how many women and weak men out there pop pills everyday instead of dealing with their real issues or living a healthy lifestyle. It’s the biggest business in America next to porn.

Yall know the U.S. is pretty much the only country that allows this right? Blame the swamp!

It's crazy how many of the latest ads are trying to convince early-stage white spinsters to take anti-psychotics.

It's gotten so bad I've taken to documenting this shite for future generations, so they'll see what we had to go through instead of exercising. Too cheap to pay for Premium You Tube TV.

Ads

If I hear “Oh, oh, oh, Ozempic!" one more time I might go postal. Make it stop.

At least some have catchy jingles my 4 year old can sing along to; I’m more sick of Gordon’s jeans with loafers, Spencer’s one handed catch, and Peyton’s 5 days beard.

SOTYKTU is pretty clever marketing; feel bad, just SOTYKTU(so take two)

They should go back to letting drug reps entice physicians. Maybe we’d see fewer commercials

Despite what lolberts on this board might say, drug commercials should be banned.
