>>>>>>I think the whole thing is pretty dumb marketing; it feeds into some people's belief that being seen popping a pill is shameful. When I have to take any kind of medication, I couldn't care less who sees me doing it.

You make a good point here. The marketing about more discretion panders to the silly belief that taking medication is shameful. I used to feel like some sort of crack-head junkie in a dark alley when I would take my meds. I really don't care anymore.

However, silly or not, some people really are ashamed to take meds, and I think this was Solvay / Roche's "response" to the "market" for this, however inadequate it is. (OK, who am I kidding, it was an attempt to re-market a drug that is off patent, and make lots of money).

Take care,

Matt
