I'm watching more TV lately. Perhaps because I'm more settled and able to relax in the evenings. I am alarmed at the number of commercials for prescription drugs. Seriously I counted the other night. In 2 hours there 17 commericals. 10 of them were for prescriptions, 3 different drugs but 10 commericals aired.
This morning I find this report on Auntie B:
Pharmaceutical firms are inventing diseases to sell more drugs, researchers have warned.
Disease-mongering promotes non-existent diseases and exaggerates mild problems to boost profits, the Public Library of Science Medicine reported.
