It's not that simple. People with allergies might not know that there is a better medication available. People with restless leg syndrome may just think it's some weird thing unique to them. Depression is a really big one to get people to go to a doctor for.
Notice there aren't any commercials for stuff like antibiotics. People are already going to a doctor when they have an infection and other serious conditions. They advertise the stuff that needs advertisement. If it didn't work they wouldn't do it.
- Retric 13y agoThere are really two kinds of drug advertising threes symptoms XYZ are treatable and theirs take drug Y you will thank me in the morning. IMO, there is no reason to allow the second kind. Sure, if there is only one drug to treat a condition there similar. However, there are several drugs available to treat most diseases and really should be up to you and your doctor to decide the right drug based on efficiency and side effects not some drug companies advertising budget. It's important to note the second type is far more common and far more expensive than the first.
