Perfectly good questions. As long as you're not forced to take anything, it's your choice and responsibility, not someone else's.

It's also their responsibility not to lie to the public just to create demand for their products. A doctor would not get away with these bullshit recommendations, why can these advertisers get away with it?

You haven’t been paying attention to the cozy relationships between doctors and opioid producers.
I've heard there's this new industry called advertising that is focused in swaying people in a certain direction. There's also this new contraption called mass media. Also there's this thing called wealth accumulation. It sure seems like putting those three together might kind of, sort of influence a large mass of people into doing certain things.
