There is something about the way drug companies market to consumers - commercials on TV and ads in magazines - that I find disturbing. While I like the idea of information about drugs being easily available, the marketing of the drugs to potential patients seems to be as much selling the disease as it is selling the cure.
This parody site for Havidol sums it all up perfectly.
HAVIDOL is for the treatment of Dysphoric Social Attention Consumption Deficit Anxiety Disorder (DSACDAD). It is the only known medication available for this newly recognized disorder.
