There has been a lot of discussion on what can and cannot be said in advertising, as regulated by FDA. I just saw a Tresiba commercial. I know I've seen it tons of times before because that annoying "Tresiba Ready" sing song is so annoying, but I guess I've never really paid attention. One thing that caught my attention this time is the following statement...
"Tresiba works like your body's insulin, releases slow and steady."
I've always been skeptical of jumping ahead of real science with regards to claims of "works just like a pancreas," but if Novo gets away with this in an advert it certainly seems like MNKD should be able to have some claim about Afrezza "working like your body's insulin at mealtime, with quick onset and fast clearance." That statement, while certainly being incomplete regarding physiology, would seem to be as true as Novo's statement.
Of course Novo can much more easily afford remaking a commercial (and worst case paying a fine) if FDA were to object.

it would be a voice over.
I see that tresiba commercial 5 or 6 times a day. Starting with Morning Joe. also on the nightly news on multiple stations, and on CNN.
I dislike that commercial greatly. Tresiba makes this guy mow his lawn in circles while dancing. The commercial seems to imply, Tresiba will make you behave strangely.
Gotta love the French. The commercial is terrible.

Tresiba is made by Novo Nordisk which is a Danish company. No Frenchies there.
But The Sanofi Toujeo commercial that was on The Fox News channel tonight during Tucker Carlson would fit your “Gotta love the French. The commercial is terrible.”

Is this actor the same individual as the vagabond? |

Peppy it was not this Toujeo commercial. I don’t think i have ever seen this one before and it was 1:30 so I know that was not the one I saw on Tucker Carlson
They one you embedded is a crappy commercial in my view.

I dislike both the Toujeo and the Tresiba commercials.

Yes, that Toujeo commercial is annoying! How they got Earth Wind and Fire to allow one of their largest hits to be connected to some goofy guy trying to dance around is way beyond me! One thing is true though, The song gets your attention, and now, here we are discussing it (whether good or bad) talking about their product. People discussing your product is the goal of any commercial! So, the bottom line is that their commercial worked! Whether we like it or not! GLTA! |

No no no. Now if they had Laura dancing around that would make you want to take the drug! A bunch of fat people pretending to be happy? Not
