Proloxil.

Not my original, but still the best drug ad I've seen in a while.

Hmmm...the link isn't working. If you want to watch a funny clip, go to astonishedhead.com and click on the Miserable Ovoid Creature flash file on the left hand side of the screen (under the flash heading).

Lasix, because it sounds good and Im popular. And had 40mg of Losec changed to Prilosec...

1) good for edema and HTN plus I can aid in checking race horses for illegal stimulants.. Plus if there is a circulatory problem question Im a great sounding guess.

2)hyperuricemia and ototoxicity+++

3) Please pass the Lasix.. I sound important- "Dont give him a Laser give Lasix"

4)Also when Im IV I act different then when Im P.O.-IV I cause more vasodilaton!!

5)In addition a sulphur moeity is in my gene. Steven Johnson Syndrome watch out!!
Im so deeply inbedded in medicine!!

 

[Rogue Synapse]

wow, i just accidentally studied for my pharm test on friday

 

[Depakote]

That's a tough one...

 

[nlax30]

I smell more than a few cheesy medical pickup lines coming on......

 

[Biscuit799]

I would be Lamictal because I'm better tolerated than Depakote!

 

[TRAMD]

I would be a big ol' bottle of go-lytely!

 

[Green Grass]

moviprep is way cooler!

 

[TRAMD]

moviprep is way cooler!

What about ipecac?

 

[Green Grass]

PEG anyone? Nothing beats polyethylene glycol.

 

[TRAMD]

PEG anyone? Nothing beats polyethylene glycol.

I am thinking of a great cocktail to serve at a gastroenterology party right now . . .

Say, uh, TRA, what is with all this plastic covering everything?

 

[Green Grass]

Wow, think of the fun. Just remember to keep the backdoor open

 

[GoBuckeyes913]

I'd be Levitra. The rest is to your imagination *snicker*

 

[vtucci]

I'd be Adderall. Fabulously hyper. Only I could take amphetamine (for ADD) and have it calm me down.

 

[GodoShingo]

What would your name be?

HellAnol

Why would a doctor prescribe you?

For problems with sexual arousal. According to a study of 100 people (with equal amounts of men and women, from 18-50 years), I raise the sexual lust tenfold for 99% of the patients.

And what would your side effects be?

Vaginal dryness and impotence, 50% chance.

 

[AlternateSome1]

Soma...making things seem good the way they are without the side effects of alcohol or marijuana.

 

[Shredder]

yohimbine

 

[Orthodoc40]

Veritaserum. Then patients would have to tell me the truth about how they did that to their.....and after ingesting and imbibing what exactly.... On second thought..... (EEK! Don't want to know...)

Morphine. Take away the pain, but too much will kill ya.

If I were a durg I would be orlistat. Doctors prescribe me to overweight people to help them lose weight. The side effects are :

Oily spots in underwear
increased number of bowel movements
difficulty controlling bowel movements and lot others

It acts by inhibting enzymes that degrade lipids. So impaired lipid degradation leads to malabsorption and finally weight loss.

This is great, but unfortunately, I Don't know much about drugs, I didn't study pharmachology yet!!

 

[lsumedgirl]

I would be "F*ckitol." (If you saw the Robin Williams special on HBO a few years back, you know it.)

I would be prescribed for "whineyness (I don't think that's really a word, but it should be), mood swings, and overall jackass behavioral problems."

My side effects would be "oily anal leakage." (I've seen that on several TV drug ads. No matter what disease that I'm suffering from - if a drug is going to give me "oily anal leakage," I think I'll just hang in there and ride out the illness on my own.)

 

[ZagDoc]

yohimbine

Haha a completely clinically inapplicable drug, I love it.

[Ali Purinol]

<--- hmm... Which drug would I be?

 

[claire88]

Paracetamoxyfrusebendroneomycin, natch!

 

[lsumedgirl]

That's the one! They should put that sh** in the water here!

 

[Orthodoc40]

Ah - I believe the OP presented it like, make up a name, make up what you do, what your side effects are, etc.... So have at it!

PS - you're gonna need lots of those pills in MI (the land the Sun forsakes) for 4 years Speeter!

I hear you... another 8 inches of snow today here in Toledo

 

[TRAMD]

Paracetamoxyfrusebendroneomycin, natch!

00:46 is awesome . . . really awesome
01:14 is awesome for a totally different reason

Both are some of the more impressive examples that I have seen.

It looks messy there, in the news!!
But I don't mind snow or cold (heck, I grew up in New England!) what I mind is never seeing a blue sky....apparently it doesn't happen in Michigan. Or at least not anywhere near East Lansing. It's a really depressing place to be!

Now back to our regularly scheduled program.......
