Glad that you avoided the highly addictive meds they wanted to push. My wife saw a lot of sad situations where regular successful people became addicted to the super strong meds which led to their ruin.
Yes, the drug reps shower the hospitals & doctors with a tremendous amount of free swag advertising every kind of pill you can imagine. My mom worked at a smaller hospital and she would bring home boxes of creative eye-catchy pens, notepads, calendars, mouse pads, key chains, lanyards etc as fast as the reps would fill them. They would bring in free lunches and have special training events at hotels where they would shower them with even more "gifts".
Ugh! Such corruption.. and so many patient lives have been irreversibly damaged by these pharma scams. Add to that the incentives that doctors received from big pharma to push the jabs on their patients. SMH.
