It does... stuff!

Ahhhhh US drug ads!!! They need to disclose everything in ads. We saw an ad for an allergy nasal spray called Veramyst, and one of the things that flashed across the screen (after "Side effects include nosebleed or nasal sores. Nasal fungal infection, glaucoma, or cataracts may occur") was the fabulous quote:

"The way VERAMYST works is not fully understood."


Nice. Makes you want to shove it up your nose doesn't it?

That's a good disclaimer. Better than "The way VERAMYST might kill you is not fully understood".

Got to say we were fascinated by the number of drug adds on tele when we were in the states. Could quote them verbatim by the end of the trip.
