Drugs, Money, Media and Advertising

Medicines, money, media, advertisements are everywhere. They are in accessories from magazines, television, radio, signs and pharmacists. Today, it is difficult to get rid of all the drug advertisements. All of these advertisements are for products that require doctor's prescription. The purpose of advertising is to increase profits. Pharmaceutical companies are trying to create as many consumer organizations as possible by widely announcing drugs that are not needed for the majority of people.

The influence of the media is a major causal relationship with drug abuse, especially for drugs such as alcohol and tobacco. The media "cools" these medicines through gorgeous advertising in the media. However, because there is not much emphasis on the adverse effects of such drugs, the adolescents are affected and the information to use them is inadequate, which can be attributed to the use of drugs . This can lead to poisoning and when victims realize, they can not do without medicine. This effect of media can be blocked by using warning labels and banning certain forms of drug advertisements for adolescents.

When the use of cocaine became popular in the United States in the 1980s, the American Association of Advertising Agencies donated funds to help set goals to reduce demand for drug use through the media. In 1986, an American partnership without drugs was born. The US drug free partnership is "a non-profit, non-partisan private organization for telecom industry experts" (Introduction of the US Drug Free Partnership (PDFA), Internet site). This organization is mainly composed of media experts, journalists, advertising agencies, talent industries, publicity and research companies, and about 30 employees.
