SUMMARY: There is a talent drain at the agency and DTC levels. More experienced DTC people are being forced to retire. TV still gets the biggest share of DTC budgets, but they don’t drive brand objectives. Talented marketers don’t want a career in pharma because of the culture. Many pharma agencies have allowed and sometimes forced experienced, talented people to leave while replacing them with inexpensive unproven people, and it shows.

SUMMARY: The FDA has many puzzled as to why they approve some drugs with questionable data and ask for more data on other drugs. The FDA approves drugs on the potential to save a life, the cost of the drugs is never considered in the process.

Alcohol abuse is closely correlated with depression. This doesn’t necessarily mean one causes the other, but many people who suffer from depressive disorders turn to alcohol to escape. On the other side of that coin, those who abuse or overuse alcohol can develop symptoms of depression or exacerbate symptoms that are already present. So, how are these two issues related, and how can you help a loved one if you start to notice alcohol-induced depression or depression-induced alcohol abuse?
