Side Effects

What’s up with these medicine commercials where it takes the announcer longer to list the possible side effects of the treatment than it does to describe the benefits of the product? I’ve seen one treatment commercial where they list at least a dozen side effects.  The good news is that the actors look pretty happy during the reading. This woman dances around and stuff while the side effects are read. And of course the actors are attractive. And spry. But I still would not likely buy this treatment after hearing those side effect lists…

Maybe if they sang the side effect list to the tune of The Twelve Days of Christmas, I’d feel less intimidated.  Is that asking too much? They’ve already got the lady dancing…
