Are you a miserable ovoid creature?:

progenitorivox_ad.jpgOmni Brain has found an hilarious spoof drug advert in the form of a marketing campaign for the fictional medication Proloxil.

Spoofing drugs and drug companies has now become a minor pastime on the internet, with a number of cutting satires available online.

The Onion has a brilliant news story 'reporting' on the launch of a new 'Zoloft for everything' ad campaign.

The Consumers Union produced a fantastically amusing video advert last year for the fake drug Progenitorivox, as part of their campaign to get drug companies to release all the data from their trials.

And who could possible resist wonder-drugs Panexa and Fukitol as a solution to your life problems?
