| Here’s what’s at stake: |
| |
| Pharma Ads Push Dangerous Drugs |
| Remember Vioxx? Despite evidence of heart attack risks, Big Pharma
promoted it for years. And with opioids, we were told they were “safe
and effective,” yet they’re now taking over 100,000
lives annually.
|
| |
| Advertising Costs Make Medicine Unaffordable |
| Last year, Big Pharma spent $37 billion more on ads than on
research. They push their products like car companies, driving up
prices and making medication costs unbearable for millions of
Americans. |
| |
| Our Kids Are Sicker Than Ever |
| Today, 60% of American children suffer from chronic health
conditions, compared to just 6% in the 1960s. We’re now spending
$4.3 trillion each year on healthcare, mainly to treat chronic
illnesses. |
| |
| Big Pharma Controls the Media |
| Pharma ads dominate 70-80% of TV news ad revenue. With networks
dependent on this income, they’re pressured to avoid negative coverage
of the industry. Big Pharma’s influence over the media is putting our
access to truthful information at risk. |
| |
| We can’t afford to let pharmaceutical ads continue to harm us,
drive up healthcare costs, and control the media. |
| |
| Take a stand—sign
the petition now to ban these ads and protect our health and
our future. |

| Thank you for taking action. |
