I haven’t looked into it because I kind of don’t care. I don’t blindly follow medical recommendations anywhere in the world. I will say that pharmaceutical companies are not allowed to advertise on tv in Europe.

Advertising their drugs would only lead to higher demand. And since most are manufactured by foreign countries, the cost of importation could significantly increase national spending, which already greatly outweighs the cost of domestic sales.
They’d make a lot of money though so it’ll be more profitable regardless
