Is it just me or should advertising medication just be illegal as a whole? If you need meds you should talk to your doctor.
- AntiUSAbah 5mo agoI would have agreed a while back but now i don't. I think its gatekeping and there should be a way to get everything without another adult telling you no. There is a lot of bias around what and how and when and who can take what.
- expedition32 5mo agoAh yes the American naivity of pretending people are not morons. The renaissance man never existed.

- Natfan 5mo agofeels like a slippery slope to some eugenics bullshit
- AntiUSAbah 5mo agoThats happening anyway. Its a class thing, poor people buy crystal, the rich buy ritalin from the doctor.
- AntiUSAbah 5mo agoI see the issue but its not like I can go to some seminar, get educated about a specific medication/chemical and then i'm allowed to just buy it.
- pjc50 5mo agoAdvertising prescription medication is indeed illegal in the UK. https://www.gov.uk/guidance/advertise-your-medicines https://www.gov.uk/guidance/advertise-your-medicines OTC is ok.
- expedition32 5mo agoThey have to label those as not clinically proven. No this stuff is not going to make you look 20 again...
- nradov 5mo agoIt's just you. There's nothing wrong with informing adults about the existence and benefits of medications. Many consumers aren't even aware that there are medications available to treat their conditions. They don't know to ask their doctor about it. Even a lot of doctors don't stay current on new medications. There's a real knowledge gap.
