River 92,576 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 6 hours ago, MessyTop said: You need to understand , marketing drugs/medicine is only legal in the United States. No other country in the world markets drugs. So for other folk it seems so out of line and not right. We Americans are so used to drug Commercials we don’t think twice about it. False, in Europe it's pretty common, even with celebrities, just open the Italian, french, swiss tv, drugs everywhere. I think the real problem in many countries is that doctors are affiliated with certain pharma companies and forcing you to buy their drugs instead of the generic brands, so you pay extra money on a branded drug and the doctors gets a money from these companies, it's a win win for the pharma companies and the doctor but u lose a lot.

MadArchitect 266 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 9 hours ago, holy scheisse said: Yes- I have heard of the hiv and the autism community before, but I have not heard of the migraine community and that’s the whole issue here lol. I will apologize for a third time… sorry 😬 Admittedly I have only ever had 2 migraines in my life and I don’t have a neurological disorder or underlying condition causing them like other ppl who experience them chronically. So for me what was just 2 bad days in my life, to others is a piece of their identity. And that’s why I interpreted “migraine community” as a manipulative language choice instead of just referencing something that exists. The fact that I and several other ppl were mass quoted and called out for being insensitive demonstrates how I guess many people are unaware “the migraine community” is a thing etijer f*cking way, I’m sorry but I’m going to continue to laugh at this sh*t every time she posts a pharmaceutical ad. It’s embarrassing asf. Members of the migraine community can speak with their neurologists about their medication options they don’t need a celebrity selling them one how is it to aknowledge a community in any way manipulative? this is not her coveniently talking this way for this ad alone, this is what she seeks and her way of speaking for everything, when it comes to making art or business ventures and her business model, even just casually to connect to people, she always talks about community and how she tries to constribute to it, here in this ad she's photographing the other nurtec patients, who's to say she hasn't talked to them, hang out, connect over their problems with migraine and build community with them, maybe because of that they're in the ad, it wouldn't surprise me as that it's often how people talk about her, as very approachable and fond of people she meets. Its just sad to see how her own fans are unable to even give her the benefit of the doubt or think she's maybe just being genuine with this? why just instantly thinking she's being disengenuous and untruthful without having any real indication? yes she's being paid, that doesn't mean she's only doing it for the money or money is her priority, Yes people dont need celebrities selling them medications or any product, but Gaga just happens to be a celebrity too, here she is an actual patient just like the rest of people who appeared in the ad with her, you're also mad at her specifically just for being the celebrity and thats it. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sneaky Oliver 20,149 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 (edited) 1. I don’t think it’s that big of an issue as many of you guys make it out to be Gaga has spoken out about her struggles with chronic pain many times before so it makes sense for her to be on the campaign since many people probably associate her image of a strong person who goes through a lot of pain yet 2. I don’t understand why she has to treat it like a super a super cool innovative artistic project of hers, I mean just show up for the campaign, speak in behalf of Nurtec interview-style and call it a day. I mean did she/her team really think it’s a good idea to post a migraine medicine ad on LADY Gaga’s instagram feed?

I view all advertisements as manipulative bc advertisements are inherently manipulative. The point is to try and get you to go out and buy or do something. As someone who studied marketing and advertising all I can see is calculated efforts to establish rhetoric and persuasion. “Community” makes the listener feel like “omg me and lady Gaga are connected! She knows what I’m going through… I should do what she says”. celebrity endorsements are a classic marketing strategy. do not get it twisted the goal behind all of this is to make money it’s not to cure the world of migraines. sure thats a secondary goal but in America, medicine is business. So yeah I am mad at her for being a celebrity pushing pills The only reason we got this “film” is bc she saw the backlash from lazily using her tour footage in the last ad lmfao you’ve got to be kidding me about her genuinely being friends with these people Edited April 9 by holy scheisse 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HelloHangoverz 5,178 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 It's called Vydura in the UK - not even available on the NHS as they refuse to pay the ridiculous Pfizer patent price. Can get it via online pharmacies and they're asking £43.99 for TWO TABLETS. I want the Pfizer CEO dragged in the streets don't be fooled by the rocks that I got, I'm just HelloHangoverz from the block Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
