I assume there would some 1st amendment argument that allows this and would make a ban difficult. The FDA could probably regulate claims in ads more carefully. It would also be nice not to allow or to limit the cost of advertising in the price of drugs for Medicare and for drugs in exchange plans.
Well, they banned tobacco ads on TV.
And have restricted ad content and direction away from kids too.
