Are you aware that the United States and New Zealand are the only two countries that permit direct-to-consumer-drug-advertising? Have you noticed the ramp up of Hepatitis C testing over the past decade promoted by pharma companies for their $60K 12 pill cure?
Thanks for helping make my point Freedom56! I agree, seeing a push for a $60k Hep C cure makes sense. But why would they make a big push for $24/year statin drug?
There seems to be pros and cons to taking statins. But saying that they are being pushed because they are so profitable to drug companies isn't passing the common sense test since statins are cheap generics.
