A Little Pill With a Big Story To Tell

The Jardiance story is large
Get low A1C for a charge
The message pray tell
Seems to make people swell
Their singer so sweet is a barge

Author's note: For people outside the U.S., drug companies barrage us with ads suggesting we ask our doctor about this drug or that. If you haven't seen this particular ad, find it by searching for "Jardiance commercial 2023." It's quite a production, and it really makes an impression. When I saw and heard this ad, which resembles a broadway show, it struck me that we can sing and dance our way to happiness with this prescription drug.

LOL! We saw a comedian who talked about one drug after another, each one feeding the next because now you have this and that reaction.

Kim, I find myself repeating their jingle in my head from time to time. They have a very clever Madison Avenue advertising firm on the payroll. How do the rest of us stand a chance?
