I've seen commercials for a few antidepressants and the non-stimulant Strattera. You'll probably never have the pleasure of viewing a commercial for any highly controlled substance like Adderall, Dexedrine, Focalin or Ritalin. You may see an advertisement for one in a professional journal or prescribing reference magazine. I don't know the reason, but I can guess that either a drug has gone off patent (less profit potential) or has a high rate of abuse. If someone has a better explanation please post. Cheers.
