Another suggests that you have to go urgently, but once you get there you find you can't go at all. You're not imagining it: In 2006 pharmaceutical companies poured $238.8 million into ads for drugs to treat those embarrassing symptoms, including Flomax for prostate trouble and Vesicare for bladder issues. That's 37% more than the industry spent pitching such drugs in 2005, according to TNS Media Intelligence.
