Pristiq Ad Runs During World Series As Adverse Events Reports Mount
Yes, that creepy ad for Pristiq with the woman staring at the wind-up doll has been running again during the ALCS and NLCS and now during game one of the World Series last night (won by the Phillies 6-1 over the Yanks with a big assist from former Mariner Raul Ibanez). It’s bad enough having to sit through Cialis and Viagra ads during the Fall Classic, but anti-depressant ads, too? Hand me a beer instead. You see the ad here.
Meanwhile, adverse events for the Son of Effexor continue to mount and stand at 1,361 adverse events reports in the FDA’s database. That’s good going for a drug that’s been on the market two-plus years and that still is used so little that Pfizer (Wyeth’s new owner) doesn’t list third quarter 2009 sales figures for the drug.
