About this listen
We’ve all been there: You’re on your couch watching TV, when suddenly a celebrity appears to try to sell you Ozempic. How does pharmaceutical marketing influence patient behavior, doctor-patient relationships, and public policy? Learn all that and more this week on Health Wanted, when host Laurel Bristow dissects the uniquely American phenomenon that is direct-to-consumer prescription drug advertising. Then, she is joined by Steve Woloshin, MD, for a doctor’s perspective.
Bristow addresses questions on topics ranging from rabbits with horns in Colorado to PFAS in contact lenses to a reported link between cancer and COVID, all before Sick of the Week gives a preview of respiratory virus season.
For a full rundown on all the information shared in today's episode, take a look at the Show Notes.
