The NHS is a garbage system. That isn't a defense of the American system, but they are hardly who we want to model.
When I got certified as a Pharmacy Tech way back in the early 2000's, we had to memorize the top 200 drugs prescribed in the US. We also had to know what the top 10 drugs were of some selective classes. SSRIs (Selective Satonin Reuptake Inhibitors)--anti depressants--were on the list...every single one of them.
I only take shit with a V.Me neither.
Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to take a 5mg Melatonin and turn in for the night.
Intense exercise is better than any pill.
Look up some tumeric rubs and brew something up...maybe a dmso cream-gelI don't take pills, but exercise has been difficult for me as I pulled my hamstring.... I went running for the first time this Sunday in two and a half years, I'm suffering and I was running very slowly
And every other ad on TV is for a pharmaceutical.I don't deny that. As a Pharmacy Technician, there was seldom a week where I didn't see a sales person from a medical supply/drug manufacturer stop by to see if we had their stuff or another MFG's stuff on our shelves.

I suspect a "double hump" distribution with people like us who take zero drugs and folks who take 6 or more. My mom was up to 8 and she seemed to get worse with each new prescription. Xanax was the final straw.I also have none....Makes you wonder how many pills those picking up the slack are popping, dunnit?
And it seems there is a new drug being advertised every couple weeks. It's always reassuring when over half of the commercial is the narrator going over the side effects which sound way worse than the condition the drug is supposed to cure.And every other ad on TV is for a pharmaceutical.

I know what you mean. When I visit my mother is the only time I watch TV and I have to laugh when they do that!And it seems there is a new drug being advertised every couple weeks.

True, how many drugs on TV "improve" skin conditions?I know what you mean. When I visit my mother is the only time I watch TV and I have to laugh when they do that!
Another part of the problem is that there are certain diseases that are financially lucrative because they are so common such as heart disease, BP, diabetes so there always trying to come up with something new, that is not always better than the old stand byes and a,ways costs a hell of a lot more.
And let’s not even talk about plumpnessTrue, how many drugs on TV "improve" skin conditions?
The best one was Ozempic, a diabetes medication that had a side effect of possible weight loss. People started taking it and dropping 20 to 25 pounds. Voila! Screw diabetes, Ozempic is a weight loss drug.And let’s not even talk about plumpness
It's a new designer drug. I expect a version of this will be released for weight loss, there is simply too much money to be made.The best one was Ozempic, a diabetes medication that had a side effect of possible weight loss.

The funny thing is most of them aren’t even “new”. They’re drugs that have existed for decades, just given a shiny new brand name and slick commercials.And it seems there is a new drug being advertised every couple weeks.
Yup.I take 1 BP pill.
It's so annoying.And every other ad on TV is for a pharmaceutical.
