All my post-it notes have drug names on them and half my pens do.

What I object to were some of the kickbacks that used to be legal. I think things are tightened up now, but there used to be a booklet floating around giving the per prescription "bonus" docs would get if they submitted copies to the company. I think HIPAA likely put the kibosh on that, they can't send the copies any more.

We nurses found the booklet and we were not happy.
