Tiivistelmä: | The study analyses the findings of two surveys that investigates U.K. physician and consumer attitudes to the introduction of direct to consumer advertising (DTCA). The findings recommend that neither physicians nor consumers have positive attitude towards the advertising of prescriptions drugs, although significant differences in attitudes toward such policies emerged between the two groups based upon "ethics and approval levels," "ethics-related impacts," and the "impact of unbranded disease awareness campaigns." The findings do not support the extension of DTCA. Instead, the findings prefer a continuation of unbranded disease awareness campaigns. |
