Corrective drug ads
The NYT points out that corrective ads are rare, but Bayer is running them for Yaz, a birth control pill, as part of a settlement with the FDA and state attorneys general. The ads explain that Yaz isn't a treatment for acne or PMS and carries the risk of serious side effects. Here's one of the offending ads; I haven't found the corrective ad yet.
