The purpose of this study is to learn about how people understand information about prescription drugs in advertisements. In order to get a real-life reaction to this information, we created a brand to use in this study.
The advertisement you read is not a real advertisement for a product to treat [DISEASE CONDITION]. The negative outcomes of [DISEASE CONDITION] discussed in this advertisement were used as examples only. Please see your healthcare professional for any questions about [DISEASE CONDITION], treatments for [DISEASE CONDITION], and outcomes of untreated [DISEASE CONDITION]. [Drug X] is not a real product and is not available for sale.
You have been very helpful. Thank you very much for your participation!

Those are all the questions we have for you!
The purpose of this study is to learn about how people understand information about prescription drugs in advertisements. In order to get a real-life reaction to this information, we created a brand to use in this study.
The advertisement you read is not a real advertisement for a product to treat [DISEASE CONDITION]. The negative outcomes of [DISEASE CONDITION] discussed in this advertisement were used as examples only. Please see your healthcare professional for any questions about [DISEASE CONDITION], treatments for [DISEASE CONDITION], and outcomes of untreated [DISEASE CONDITION]. Drug X is not a real product and is not available for sale.
You have been very helpful. Thank you very much for your participation!
