Overview
This is an exercise that hopefully will help facilitate you reflections and learning on this topic. While technically you could answer some of these questions with yes or no answers, the purpose of this exercise is to encourage thoughtful reflection that requires more effort than that for it to be of any benefit for you.

Do you think that they are educated by DTCA?
Do you think that you are influenced by requests from patients for medications
prompted by DTCA?
What have you or could you do in terms of patient education on the influence of pharmaceutical marketing /media literacy?
