Very, very good point. Along the lines of the "wonder tonic" thing I mentioned above, these pills are being marketed as a simple and fast fix. Regardless of whether they are approved for such use, they are advertised as being able to fix things, even if it isn't proven they can. The average American citizen has the money to pay a co-pay for a bottle of pills that make them better. People are reacting to them like they would high strength vitamins.
