My best guess would be Genentech. Try looking it up on the web. I'm pretty sure they're one of the top.

it's because of the medical legal issue.  All drug manufacturers by law has to disclosed all possible side effects (however rarely they occur) on their advertisements including TV, magazines, etc...

No diet pill sold over the counter works. Nothing sold on TV works. If the bottle, ad, website or commercial says "this product/these claims have not been evaluated by the FDA" it's bogus.\n\nGo to your doctor for a diet pill if you really need one. But try exercising & cutting back on food first--it works wonders.

Since they are now marketing to "consumers" instead of doctors (like they used to), they have to come up with catchy names.  "Lorazepam" isn't that appealing or memorable.  "Adivant" is both.  How about this..."4 oz. beef patty on 2 buns with onions, pickles, mustard, ketchup, and cheese, if you'd like" or "Quarter Pounder with Cheese"

there are certainly more drugs out there that are being marketed as "vastly important" than are really necessary. drugs are being treated as consumer products, commercials are out there advertising for people to go ask their doctors if they NEED this product. bah!\n\nwanna lose weight? freakin' exercise. there is no weight loss pill.\n\nfeel sad? get out and socialize, eat right, take care of yourself. see a therapist. then if all that doesn't work, think about an antidepressant.\n\ntoothache? you don't need any damn vicodin, go home and quit bugging your doctor.\n\npills should be viewed as the last answer, when nothing else works. americans expect to be able to sit on their asses and do no work to maintain their health.

Drugs are BIG business, whether synthetic or natural

The official line from the pharmaceuticals is that they need to recover costs involved in pharmaceutical research. Many consumer groups, however, contest this and say the profits are way out of line.\n\nbtw Suffice it to say that there is also something known as natural or alternative medicine; some have had positive results. You can find plenty of info pro and con. (Obviously I am talking about some specific prescription drugs, not prescription medications in general.)  Of course only an MD is qualified to prescribe and oversee prescription medications.\n\n1 min. ago--some of these especially the newer ones are marketed rather aggressively--ads on prime time tv & 2 pg ads in magazines like Time & Newsweek--you can imagine the advertising budgets--they always say ask your doctor about such & such--as a result people see their physician to inquire about such & such a drug, sometimes putting the physician in a difficult position (like they have already made up their minds that this med is right for them)

The minute a patient has a heart attack, I start ordering five drugs:  aspirin, plavix, an acei inhibitor, a beta blocker, and a statin.  Pretty standard stuff.  Pretty expensive, unfortunately.
