1. La Exageración de los Efectos Secundarios y la Confusión del Consumidor.
Una queja recurrente es que los anuncios dedican mucho más tiempo a enumerar efectos secundarios potencialmente mortales que a explicar el beneficio real del medicamento, llevando a los espectadores a cuestionar por qué alguien tomaría dicho producto.
- I like how drug commercials are just casually like oh by the way this drug could make you suicidal.
- And every ad has like a 5-minute disclaimer of side effects up to and including death, without ever telling you what the drug is actually supposed to cure.
- My youngest and i go giddy on the disclaimers and cautions on drug commercials may cause anal leakage fatigue dry mouth and death why the fuck would anyone take this shit?!?!?!
- Im listening to the advertisement for some drug and i dont know what its even for but all the reasons not to take. It are the side effects it went on for about three minutes with one horrible experience after another. Who takes this stuff?
- I love how lawyer-brained our society is that every drug commercial has to have a disclaimer to not take the drug if youre allergic to it.
- Prescription drug commercials be like tell your doctor if youre allergic to this medication or if you have a parasitic infection. Yo.hes the doctor. He should be telling me that shit.
- A drug commercial for an allergy pill where first disclaimer is not to take if allergic to said pill. Only in america.
- Dont take drug x if youre allergic to drug x. How do i know if im allergic to it unless i take it?
- Drug advertising should not be a thing it is misleading to patients it is a hurdle for docs who have to explain why the drug they saw on tv is not for them.
- Those drug advertisements send patients flocking to their dr. For the new wonderdrug and they are supremely pissed when the meds dont get prescribed.
- Omg yes. Ive been harping on that since it was first legalized. A hell of a lot of the reason drug prices are so high is that theyre spending hundreds of millions on annoying, mostly useless advertising.
- Every time you see one of those little disclaimers that say these statements have not been evaluated by the food and drug administration, you know what that means? it means theyre lying to you on tv.
- But yeah. I loath drug commercials. People outside the us have trouble understanding why we even have them. Cant blame them.
- Fun fact drug ads are only a thing in 2 countries the us and new zealand. Late stage capitalism is doing its best to force drugs down our throats to enrich big pharma shareholders. Enough!
- Id really like to see a ban on advertising pharmaceuticals. Im sitting in a hospital waiting room and they have hgtv on the tv. Every single commercial has been for some drug. Its ridiculous.
- I can lower pharmaceutical prices by 3 billion a year with one simple regulation. End drug advertising! just like tobacco products were banned, so should drug ads.
- You ever watch pharma commercials i.e. The same pharma commercial 17 times in a row on netflix and think you could write better drug names by throwing your wireless keyboard down the stairs?
- Prescription drug commercials where people sing and dance about the drug while a narrator rapidly reads a disclaimer about all the ways the drug could potentially harm or kill you. We find these hilarious up here in canada.
- I just saw an ad for a new prescription drug called bimzelx, and yall, i think were running out of names for these things.
- I swear to god shes just put it in my files that im some kind of crazy and im a drug seeker. But im not! i hate taking pills! i hate that everything is wrong with me! i wish i could just not take anything at all and be normal?
2. La Inutilidad de las Advertencias de Alergia.
Muchos usuarios encuentran irónico y absurdo que los anuncios adviertan a los espectadores que no tomen el medicamento si son alérgicos a él, ya que es imposible saberlo sin haberlo tomado previamente.

3. El Impacto en la Relación Médico-Paciente y el Costo.
Se critica que estos anuncios incitan a los pacientes a solicitar medicamentos específicos a sus médicos, lo que se percibe como una intromisión en el juicio profesional y una fuente de frustración cuando no se recetan, además de contribuir al alto costo de los medicamentos.

4. Comparación Internacional y el Llamado a la Prohibición.
Varios usuarios señalan que la publicidad directa al consumidor de medicamentos recetados es una rareza estadounidense (junto con Nueva Zelanda), y muchos desean que se prohíba, comparándola con la prohibición de la publicidad de cigarrillos.

5. Nombres de Fármacos Absurdos y Tácticas de Marketing.
Existe una burla generalizada hacia los nombres de los medicamentos, que a menudo suenan como combinaciones aleatorias de sílabas o palabras inventadas, y hacia el uso de música popular con letras alteradas para promocionar los productos.
