There have been ads running about treating IBD with this drug... I know these appear natonally here in Canada, but I suspect they originate/air in the US as well. One shows a woman walking in circles, noting where all the public washrooms are.. and the other is virtually the same, except its a man. Now, when these first started airing, the voiceover mentioned a couple of key things.. specifically 2 separate trials, and success rates.. However, recently, these ads are airing without mentioning the number of trials, AND without the success rates... which were (to my ear, anyway) suprisingly low. Now, it could be they just edited a 60 second spot down to 30, and this material was cut so it would run in 30... Or, it may be... someone tweaked to the facts that telling the whole world out there that there were only 2 trials for treating IBD, and the success rates were relatively low.. was a bad idea. Cutting this info out really didn't amount to a lie... just an omission. Or it may be just my suspicious nature. But it sure seems like way more than just a coincidence. They did keep in all the side effect disclaimers, but I guess omitting them would be illegal.. or at least expose them to ligation, lawsuits, etc..
If I were on this drug, I'd be keeping a daily diary ... when started, who prescribed it, and any/all side effects, issues, etc.. Then, I'd sit back and wait for the lawfirm ads of the lawyers behind the class action lawsuits I expect will be launched someday.. soon??
