I read something once that it takes a drug to be on the market and used for up to 5 years before it starts paying a return on the initial investment for the research. THAT's because it's unknown (basically), and usually on the not-allowed list used by health insurance companies. So advertise, they must. But rest assured, they pay millions in Products Insurance in the meantime till it's tested and proven effective.

The drug companies invent a lot of "conditions and diseases" in order to sell drugs they already have in production. Restless Leg Syndrome is one version. Requip was actually produced as a "Parkinson's" drug.

I think Viagra was originally for arthritis but they quickly learned it lessened the sitffness of all joints, save one!

If your "stiffness" lasts for more than 8 hours, I hope your job is at the "Women's Prison" as the "recreational director"!
