I disagree with Craig and others on
Advertising-
While I have faith in my doctor that does
not mean they know everything about every drug. I want to be informed about
new drugs just like new products which may make my life better. I want to be
“in charge” of my healthcare and advertising enables me to make
choices along with my doctor. If I see a benefit I want the choice to buy it
and pay for it with or without insurance. One of my son’s is a
pharmaceutical representative and I have more faith in his product knowledge on
his products than the doctors he services due to his in depth training on his
company’s products and their knowledge of competitive products. It is
also my understanding than the practice of entertainment etc. has been
eliminated some time ago by most of the major pharmaceutical companies.
I never want my access to new products to
be censored by anyone and in particular by someone who may have my life in
their hands. Knowledge is power but staying on top of one’s profession
is much more difficult than most are willing or able to do because of their
daily work load. Give me advertising and the ability to ask questions over
being dependent on rationed solutions or conclusions.
