E-DRUG: Movie involving pharmaceutical promotion (2)
----------------------------------------------------

dear E-druggers,

I have used "Side Effects" in teaching third year students about
pharmaceutical promotion. It is a reasonable way to start discussion about
the issue. The students enjoy the opportunity to watch a movie in class.

But it is movie length, so takes quite a lot of class time, and Katherine
Heigl takes her clothes off frequently, so it wouldn't be appropriate in
some contexts. 

You can order it from the website,
www.sideeffectsthemovie.com

Best wishes,
