Abstract: | To what extent does direct-to-consumer prescription drug advertising communicate detailed technical information? It is examined in this study whether consumers attend to the brief summary of risk information in product-specific print direct-to-consumer advertisements and whether they find it useful in discussing the risks of taking the drug with their physicians. |
