all they advertised is the brand name, making them believe that only this brand is best.
Yes i agree with this. Advertising the medications should be banned.
In my opinion, prescription drugs shouldn’t be advertised directly to consumers. It can mislead people, create unnecessary demand, and push self-medication. Medicines should be prescribed based on a doctor’s judgment — not marketing.
Prescription drugs can be advertised directly to consumers in some countries, like the United States, but such advertising is heavily regulated to ensure it is truthful, not misleading, and includes information about risks and benefits. Many other countries restrict or prohibit direct-to-consumer advertising of prescription drugs to protect public health.
Prescribed drugs are heavily marketed by the companies to increase there sales which are more costlier than the generic one.
Advertising the medicine may leads to wrong consumption. So it is better to consult a doctor and take prescribed medicine because not every medicine suits all.
Advertising medicated drugs directly to the public can often lead to self-diagnosis, misuse, and over-reliance on medication without understanding the underlying condition.
That’s why they should be banned.
You’re absolutely right — prescription drugs should always be given under a doctor’s guidance, Instead of advertising the drugs, we should focus on spreading awareness about the diseases they treat. These ads are less about public health and more about generating profit.Many people are unaware of the early symptoms, causes, or long-term effects of conditions like PCOS, hypertension, or even vitamin deficiencies. Health-related awareness ads can help people recognize when something is wrong and encourage them to consult a doctor early — which improves prevention and timely treatment.
We don’t need to advertise the drugs. We need to educate people about their health — and let qualified doctors decide what treatment is best.
Yes, I agree.
