 Australia doesn’t have direct to consumer pharmaceutical advertising. 
There are laws here preventing it. However they occasionally skim the around the laws or get approval to - we are currently getting an uptick in shingles vaccination adverts, some by government and some direct from pharmaceutical company. 
They can advertise vitamins etc but not pharmaceutical items. 
 Correct I mistakenly thought it was Australia, it is New Zealand.
