Well, really it`s crazy that they`re allowed, and probably the number one reason that drug prices are so high. But sometimes they`re more entertaining than the program. First they tell you how wonderful the drug is, then they`re required to list the major side effects and then after telling you how the drug may cause effects such as breaking out with purple polka dots or sudden death they tell you again to ask your doctor about New Super Wonder Drug. I always laugh when they list drowsiness as a "side effect" of sleeping pills-isn`t that the point? Cecilia
