drug advertising
Pill commercial spots
Drug advertising is marketing that promotes pharmaceutical products to consumers or healthcare professionals.
Direct-to-consumer advertising, common in the United States, encourages patients to ask your doctor about specific medications.
Critics argue it drives demand for expensive brand-name drugs over generics and medicalizes normal conditions.
Regulations typically require disclosure of side effects and contraindications.
