numb, what we have here is both of us jumping to conclusions.
I think both of us will agree that…
…seeing folks with a simple elevated chol on an expensive drug like Vytorin is wrong…
…doctors bending to patients coming in requesting the PURPLE pill instead of cheap-o-zantac is wrong…
…and drug reps getting tax deductions for fake boobs because they can make more docs write for the PURPLE pill is wrong…
I think it is extremely hard to empower the patients because they don’t understand that Valtrex and acyclovir are really the same thing. But they will request the Valtrex because there’s commercials for them and not acyclovir.
but a lot of docs try very hard to go against the type of waste I just described, at the expense of extra time educating each patient as each one of them need to be deprogrammed by the mass-advertisement effect of Big Pharma. so when you made blanket statements about the entire profession, you ruffled some feathers. that’s all.
