The cited article is not about false advertising, but about that advertising
for prescription drugs doesn't have the effect the companies would like them
to have.

**overblown**

***they don't need or on expensive
pills that don't work any better than cheaper versions****

***"We have words of art in medicine that are innately deceptive," ***

***But that is because a 200-milligram capsule of Celebrex costs $2.50, while
an extra-strength Excedrin pill costs 90 cents***

***Prescription drug ads are a relatively new phenomenon, and drug firms still
have a lot to learn about making them.**

**The world might be a better place if drug companies could tell their stories
more clearly **

It is amazing how you missed all that, Robert.
