Big Pharma has been working on this for decades, not targeting just seniors either. I remember nearly two decades ago being in subway station and seeing a billboard for a purple pill. It didn't say what is was for, just said to talk to your doctor about it. WTH?? I thought... Do people actually go to their doctors and say "Gee, there's a new pill on the market. Purple one. Do I need to be taking that one, too?" ??
I went in for an operation several years ago and the nurses were really pushing the oxycodone BIG TIME. I took two pills, hours apart, on the day of surgery then had to tell them repeatedly for the rest of that day and the next that I neither wanted nor needed anymore of them. It was noticeably creepy, frankly.
With the elderly I think they feed their fears to get them to pop their daily handful of medi-candy. They also, at least the ones I know or have known, have a high level of trust for physicians.
I can't wait for all these medical scams to be exposed.
