This has been discussed a lot recently- that the US and New Zealand are the only countries that allow this, and that RFK jr wants to stop it in the US.
I'm a physician in the US. I don't make more or less money by prescribing one drug over another.
I OFTEN have patients make appointments and seek treatment because they saw a new drug for their condition advertised on TV. Most of the time they're motivated because their current treatment is inadequate. I discuss risks and benefits with them and we decide together if it's right for them.
It also forces me to keep up with the new stuff because I know patients will ask about it.
I have only seen people declare that prescription drug advertising on TV is bad as if it is self-evident. But I'm dumb so the reason why escapes me.
because the goal should be fixing the problem not straight to meds
