AMA Calls for Ban on Prescription Drug Commercials

The American Medical Association has called for a ban on these awful commercials.

Usually, they use animation to make these commercials more watchable. If you time it out like me, you'll see they spend more time listing side effects than promoting their drug. Anal leakage and stomach bleeding were my favorite side effects.

This was the worst I have seen.
