I especially love all the sleazy evil ads telling psychiatric patients that their anti-psychotic medications are deadly (which is a complete lie).
As a paranoiac, I can believe it.

I would bet that more people are harmed who stop their medications after seeing an ad versus those who are harmed by the touted medications themselves.
