I like the fact that Paracetamoxyfrusebendroneomycin can be taken in multiple routes. I’ve always wondered about some sort of mega-suppository… we could call it the “Protocol Pellet”. Every discipline and hospital service line could have its own per-rectal bolus of meds – psych, ortho, open heart, CHF, etc.
Funny Pharma Commercial Spoof – Asplavadin
OK… Here’s a funny take on pharma marketing with a fake commercial video about a combination drug from “Eli Willy”. Check out the hilarious tag line:
Asplavadin – If you’re not bleeding from somewhere, you should probably take another.
This was sent in by a colleague. Comment here or go to his YouTube Channel and comment there (and tell him to make more videos) :)
If you have some medical humor of your own, send it our way. ( funnystuff [at] gigglemed.com )
Funny Hospital Signs – Demerol Free Zone
Saw this sign in a hospital hallway, just outside the ER.
Demerol-Free Zone… not to be confused with Free Demerol Zone.
Naturally, I turned around and left.
Hilarious Pharma Spoof Video – Paracetamoxyfrusebendroneomycin
Hilarious video… the only thing missing is a catchy trade name. With a short, simple & catchy trade name Big Pharma make it easy for us (and patients) to remember the trade name, but never the generic (Paracetamoxyfrusebendroneomycin).
iPod Medical Humor – What’s In Your iVee?
Here’s the latest in the iHealth iPod Parody Series. The most recent iPod medical humor graphics put out there were iShock and iAGRA… now, we give you iVee…
In addition to trying to con you into buying some medical humor buttons, shirts, mugs, hats, etc with these iHealth designs, we’re also trying to build some anticipation of our release of a free iPhone/iPod app… a funny one of course.

They’re completely free and they’re completely awesome. We’ve added a bunch more since this video was made, so go look for yourself.Â
iPod Pharma Parody – You Love Gadgets You Hate Pills
After the HUGE response to the last AED/CPR Awareness Week blog post (the iShock), here’s one to really make you smile. 
In the last post, I raised the question of what would it look like if Apple teamed up with Google Health and Microsoft Health Vault… and Guidant, Johnson & Johnson, Boston Scientific… and the Red Cross… and your GPS system? Now, let’s throw Big Pharma in there.
So, here’s the latest in GiggleMed’s iHealth Humor Series… iAGRA (More to come the rest of the week… new iHealth/iPod possibilities… with a funny twist, of course.
The one drawback to this novel device, of course, would be that it’s not safe for dual bath tubs… But there’s still some funny stuff to get.
If you found this funny… Go ahead… Rise up and tell your friends. Tweet it. Digg it. Mixx it. And Stumble it.
Diureticals and Diabeticals – Too Much Lasix
I’m not sure where it started… maybe from a mixture of words like botanicals, herbal, and pharmaceuticals… maybe from those network marketing folks using new words like nutriceuticals. I don’t know.
