Drug Commercials

It's the Lerner and Rowe guys with their in a wreck, get a check spiel. My car insurance is high enough as it is.

The car accident guys won't take on a pharmaceutical product liability case. That line of work has maybe 20 years left, then gone - the self-driving cars and automatic braking for traffic signals, traffic hazards and emergency vehicles means no clients.

And prediction - when that line of work is gone, car insurance rates will not go down.

I always enjoy the long list of possible side effects they quickly run through.

You may experience nausea,vomiting, heart failure, convulsions, seizures,suicidal thoughts,stroke,blood clots, voices in your head, tumors,loss of bowels and blindness............but your migraine may be gone or something along that line...lol

I like the Pepto warning: May cause darkening of the stool.

Isn't that a pleasant way to describe gastrointestinal bleeding.

it's sad that now you see commercials for ED meds and constipation meds aimed at young people. They put kids on drugs at an early age and the fact that it will mess them up is a feature not a bug. You get to sell them 10 drugs instead of 1.

It's also this notion that nothing bad should ever happen. You should never ever feel sad, take a pill. You feel tired late afternoon. Don't accept that as something completely normal, take a pill. Your knee hurts like a 2 out of 10, better get take a drug every day for the rest of your life. Your 7 year old has trouble sitting still in a classroom for hours at a time and instead wants to act like a kid? Better get some pills to zombie them out. Grades not good enough? Don't face fact that little Jimmy may be dumb, put him on a drug to focus.
