AMA calls for an end to direct to consumer drug marketing

When I listen to the commercials and hear the part where the narrator goes into 4x reading speed to gloss over some of the side effects, it makes me NOT want to use the product. The side effects ALWAYS sound worse than the affliction they are claiming to cure.

Had to chuckle at a TV ad I saw last week (I think it was for some diabetes drug.)
The last line of the actor playing someone who's taking the drug was "And I might even lose some weight!"

Then the final 4x-speed list of "may cause" side effects ended with "vomiting and diarrhea", and I thought "Yeah, that could definitely cause one to lose weight." Confusedmiley12:
