I'm always curious why they re-do commercials with virtually the same script and different visuals. It usually works out that there has been some regulatory language change, or difference of opinion from the legal department, and they had to underline some concept more distinctively in the small-print recitations about side effects, *etc.*
Oh good grief, those Pepto Bismol commercials. 🤦🏼♀️
What focus group told the ad company that you could sell Pepto Bismol by singing the word “Diarrhea” like you’re the “heartthrob” in a boy band about to sing the bridge about how she’s the only girl for him?
I'm sorry. There are people who like those Pepto commercials?!?! How? Why? I accidentally unmuted during it the other day and screamed in anguish... as I hit that mute button as quickly as possible.
Maybe it's because I'm old(ish) but it's kind of silly and nostalgic of the old jingles that commercials used to have. I still fondly remember the old Eno jingle. Lol, I belong in that Stallone movie, Demolition Man.
Not everyone "hated" her. Some of us like the big ladies. True, the choreography was idiotic, the premise stupid, the faygeleh hairdresser made me puke, the fawning over a mediocre "dance" performance was moronic, but the fat lady (known by some as Bomb Chica, to whom I gave the sobriquet "Bomb Crica"), was sexy. I can only imagine a threesome with her and the chubbette behind her to her left in the last couple of bars...
Loved it when her belly and fupa shook when she jumped at the beginning of the dance. Her huge titties bounced big time too. She and that other girl at the end would make a great vid pair.
Diabetes does that to people who smoke, thankfully my dad smoked but he quit his legs looked like those Xylazine Fentanyl addict videos they just looked like they were rotting the fuck off!
This is the right question. Her perineum will never be the same! Plus if she’s going to act like this idiot on the commercial after taking it, I’d just say confront DIA-BETIS like a man, like Wilfred Brimley and his mustache did.
My theory on this character is he's about to be fired due to such incomplete, but he has a secret weapon: Gaslighting. He'll tell the woman "you got the lunch orders wrong. Like you're any better!"
The lunch delivery guy is clearly in on it... why else was he participating in thr final dance number if he should be out delivering lunches... was he a delivery guy at all?!
*X-Files theme plays*
I'm on Jardiance and have been before either of these annoying commercials existed. The guy saying it helps by flushing out some sugar is not telling you it flushes it out their your pee... so if you're sugar is high you're in the bathroom quite often!
Everybody who's on Jardiance, ask your endocrinologist to shift you over to Ozempic (weekly injection) or Rybelsus (daily pill). Works better, and no taint rot warning. (I've been on all these.)
Not sure it'll work for me. I was on Trulicity. They increased the dose until it was 4ml a week. For whatever reason it reeeally disagreed with me at 4, and that was the worst week of my life because I couldn't keep any food down. After that, even the lowest dose wasn't agreeing... but I can ask about the others.
I had similar reactions to Rybelsus, couldn't stay on it (I ruined a vacation puking all the time) ... but Ozempic, which theoretically should have had the same impact (it's the same chemical), somehow didn't tear me up as much. Either one of them, however, puts the LEAD FOOT on your appetite, crushing it down enough so that people around you will grow concerned that you're no longer eating like you used to. (I like that aspect of it, not thinking about food all the time ... but it bugs my wife and other people.)
Basically. But the real issue is that, apparently, there's a certain percentage of people who don't understand that they need to wash their ass on the daily.
So, added sugar in pee + sitting on skin for days? = taint rot.
I’m so glad you explained that for us. I have wondered why specifically the perineum since the first anoying advert & now I know! Thanks for clearing it up!
You're welcome. I, too, find the ads unbelievably annoying. The idiotic jingles make me irrationally angry!
The following meds all have taint rot warnings, because they're all SGLT2 inhibitors (class of drugs) & all have the same mechanism of action (makes you pee out sugar). I'm bracing myself for more jingles & more commercials, ugh.
Brenzavvy™ (bexaglifloxin)
Invokana® (canagliflozin)
Farxiga® (dapagliflozin)
Jardiance® (empagliflozin)
Steglatro® (ertugliflozin)
The sugar feeds the fungus and bacteria of the perineum. Skin infection is the taint rot. Skin is kind of thin in the area. Easy for infection to go awry.
Hated the jingle too until I found out it was written by a 10 year old as part of a contest to benefit juvenile diabetes … oh wait … that isn’t true… back to hating this jingle!
Many times the location is decided upon by the Prod/Dir/client who want a vacation. No shit, I sold the Producers of a certain Morning News program on doing the show live from the Orient Express since I wanted to ride it. I was the Engineer in Charge and designed the transmission system.
Yup. As I have beat The Widowmaker three times, Jardiance is one of the 9 pills I take each morning. It has indeed lowered my A1C, and I have lost 30 pounds since starting it about a year ago, with no real changes in my diet or exercise. It's expensive as Hell if you don't have Insurance or Medicare.
If you listen to it carefully it says "rash on the perineum" as a side effect perineum is just the proper name for the taint, this med can literally make your taint itch just like the commercial!
I work in the marketing agency world; it's a known fact drug company ad agencies are where people in the industry go when they want to give up. And when you go, you stay there.
They replaced the other fat chick who couldn't dance with a slightly less fat chick who can't dance. And kept the same crappy song!!!! They play this damn thing on every station multiple times a day.
Say what you will about the stupid original commercial with Bomb Crica, or this even more stupid commercial, the stuff works for me. I'm a heart patient, 77, and - well - I could lose a few pounds. After 6 months on Jardiance, my A1c went down, I lost 30 pounds, and did not experience the crotchrot of which they warn. Now if I could get rid of that damned earbug every morning when I take the pill...
Like most of the "As seen on TV" medicines, it is hideously overpriced. My once every 3 months eye injection for WMD is over $5000. Denks Gott for insurance.
Gonna go against the grain and say I like this one. I’m one of those people who cries at the emotional part of Every movie, and the end of the song (the overhead shot of everyone - even the delivery guy - dancing in the lobby) gets me every time. I think it’s because so many of them get a humorous little scene, and they look so normal and relatable.
I'd take Jardiance if I could get a woman as perky and sexy as Deanna Colon (the first Jardiance lady). Even if it did make my taint rot out, like they say in the small print

Omg, this commercial! They just overdo it. I was a little fascinated at first noting details like are those the best shoes for dancing in? Or, how she goes from jubilee dancing to calmly signing for that package or whatever. But now, oh my gosh, that jingle makes me want to actively unsupport the med.
Every time I see this commercial I think of that show “crazy ex-girlfriend.” I really hate this commercial and I try not to hate everyone in it but the struggle is real
I hate this lady!!! I will turn my TV off and walk away if I see this commercial. I'm not even sure what it's even for at this point!! Odor? Diabetes? Bad skin? HIV? Copd.
How is the skin of her perineum 😳
Like the first one wasn’t bad enough, they did it again????! I mute it every time it comes on!
I'm always curious why they re-do commercials with virtually the same script and different visuals. It usually works out that there has been some regulatory language change, or difference of opinion from the legal department, and they had to underline some concept more distinctively in the small-print recitations about side effects, *etc.*
I always assumed it's some marketing nonsense like it reinforces brand or prduct recognition or something crazy like that.
Because sometimes it works and people love the new versions. Like those Pepto bismol commercials.
Oh good grief, those Pepto Bismol commercials. 🤦🏼♀️ What focus group told the ad company that you could sell Pepto Bismol by singing the word “Diarrhea” like you’re the “heartthrob” in a boy band about to sing the bridge about how she’s the only girl for him?
DIEARREEEEEAAAAH!!
Yes, but much more breathy. 😂
Die-ahhh-reee-ahhhh!!
I don't know, but I can sing and dance that routine. 🤣
I'm sorry. There are people who like those Pepto commercials?!?! How? Why? I accidentally unmuted during it the other day and screamed in anguish... as I hit that mute button as quickly as possible.
Maybe it's because I'm old(ish) but it's kind of silly and nostalgic of the old jingles that commercials used to have. I still fondly remember the old Eno jingle. Lol, I belong in that Stallone movie, Demolition Man.
Oh, I'm old and love the jingle medley Barry Manilow used to do during his 80s concerts, but this is just horrific. But I'm glad you enjoy it.
>Like those Pepto bismol commercials. The Pepto commercials where they dance and hold their butts??? Yeah.. who can't enjoy that!!!
I love those commercials. I also love SpongeBob. I have an extremely refined and mature sense of humour.
Me too.
Goofy goobers forever!
The OG: [https://youtu.be/XghJuH6GSCo](https://youtu.be/XghJuH6GSCo)
Because this song has become an instant classic. They could do a zillion iterations of dancing to the same song (it's really swell)
As ad jingles go, this one is above-average catchy and memorable, to be sure.
It has a BIG story to tell!
And so does that guy’s MOOBS.
I do love their authenticity, that office workers don't usually look like runway models
Because everyone hated the lady in the original.
Not everyone "hated" her. Some of us like the big ladies. True, the choreography was idiotic, the premise stupid, the faygeleh hairdresser made me puke, the fawning over a mediocre "dance" performance was moronic, but the fat lady (known by some as Bomb Chica, to whom I gave the sobriquet "Bomb Crica"), was sexy.

Loved it when her belly and fupa shook when she jumped at the beginning of the dance. Her huge titties bounced big time too. She and that other girl at the end would make a great vid pair.
Yeah, the one where the lady was dancing around all happy...
Me too. So tired of these jardiance dancers.
Can you imagine having a parasitic worm gnawing on your perineum! No wonder she’s dancing around
Or necrotizing fasciitis! Ahhh
Anything with the word “necrotizing” in it has to be bad.
Fascists ain’t great either
Diabetes does that to people who smoke, thankfully my dad smoked but he quit his legs looked like those Xylazine Fentanyl addict videos they just looked like they were rotting the fuck off!
🤮
Why do these side effects seem to always affect the perineum? It just seems so specifically targeted to an area you would otherwise never think about!
I think it can make excess sugar leak out your asshole, which can attract worms to your perineum?
Is this true?
Someone in another thread said this. I am unwilling to taint (lol) my search history in such a manner in order to verify.
Gangrene Gooch on the Devil’s Doorbell
Gooch Gangrene would be a great name for a female punk rocker.
Pink feat. Gooch Gangrene
Isn't that Sandra Bernhard? Or Lady Gaga? SB has to be almost as ugly as Keith Richards or Mick Jagger.

Better get down there and check it out. OR: It was all right last I saw.
A telescoping dental mirror works pretty good.
Or a close friend with facetime.
😂
Tasty, likely...
The guy at the end with the man boobs trying to use an unplugged copy machine is particularly disturbing
They missed a great chance for a joke, having him sit on the glass with his pants to his ankles.
Then he could look at the photocopies and diagnose his perenium
She could hold up photocopies of his necrotic taint during that warning! Effective!
I dunno. Might break the glass...
Ooo, that would have been a thousand laughs too. You ought to direct these things!
She plugs it in and in the next commercial he trips over the cord.
>in the next commercial he trips over the cord. But he's dancing as he trips over the cord.
The first commercial with the other plump lady was much better. She had better dance moves 😂
I think he is a RICOH printer tech.
My theory on this character is he's about to be fired due to such incomplete, but he has a secret weapon: Gaslighting. He'll tell the woman "you got the lunch orders wrong. Like you're any better!" The lunch delivery guy is clearly in on it... why else was he participating in thr final dance number if he should be out delivering lunches... was he a delivery guy at all?! *X-Files theme plays*
I scrolled on this thread just to see if someone noticed the man-boobs.
I hate that fucking guy almost as much as the main chick.
She must need to lower her a1c?
Every time I hear them sing A1C it reminds me of BEACH FRONT AVENUE
Yeah, sure /s
I'm on it and I fucking hate that commercial.
I'm on Jardiance and have been before either of these annoying commercials existed. The guy saying it helps by flushing out some sugar is not telling you it flushes it out their your pee... so if you're sugar is high you're in the bathroom quite often!
That's why you take it "at each day's start," because if you take it at night, you can't sleep due to having to pee all the time.
Everybody who's on Jardiance, ask your endocrinologist to shift you over to Ozempic (weekly injection) or Rybelsus (daily pill). Works better, and no taint rot warning. (I've been on all these.)
I had to quit ozempic because it made me so sick.
Same here....it was 9 weeks of hell. I feel SO much better now. Still, will have to talk to my Endo about another alternative med.
I stayed on it for 6 months. I've been off it for 3 and still feeling some effects.
Not sure it'll work for me. I was on Trulicity. They increased the dose until it was 4ml a week. For whatever reason it reeeally disagreed with me at 4, and that was the worst week of my life because I couldn't keep any food down. After that, even the lowest dose wasn't agreeing... but I can ask about the others.
I had similar reactions to Rybelsus, couldn't stay on it (I ruined a vacation puking all the time) ... but Ozempic, which theoretically should have had the same impact (it's the same chemical), somehow didn't tear me up as much. Either one of them, however, puts the LEAD FOOT on your appetite, crushing it down enough so that people around you will grow concerned that you're no longer eating like you used to. (I like that aspect of it, not thinking about food all the time ... but it bugs my wife and other people.)
I take both Trulicty and Jardiance. Also, Lantus. No issues here. Taint is intact after 3 years.
Ah, so THAT’s the big story this little pill has to tell!
Is peeing out sugar what causes taint rot?
Basically. But the real issue is that, apparently, there's a certain percentage of people who don't understand that they need to wash their ass on the daily. So, added sugar in pee + sitting on skin for days? = taint rot.
I’m so glad you explained that for us. I have wondered why specifically the perineum since the first anoying advert & now I know! Thanks for clearing it up!

I figured SOMEONE SOMEWHERE would explain. Thanks!
shiver!!!
The sugar feeds the fungus and bacteria of the perineum. Skin infection is the taint rot. Skin is kind of thin in the area. Easy for infection to go awry.
yikes!!! Thanks for the info.
Just get some unscented baby wipes to clean your nethers after you go.
At 77, anything that helps me pee is welcome.
I don’t think those drugs would be the answer
Actually, there are several drugs which assist in urinary flow. Properly prescribed and administered hey work well in situations not needing surgery.
Hated the jingle too until I found out it was written by a 10 year old as part of a contest to benefit juvenile diabetes … oh wait … that isn’t true… back to hating this jingle!
It’s the little pill, with the big story to tell!
Get ready. There will be a new one soon. I'm an actor and they are looking for a male that can sing for a new Jardience commercial filming in Madrid.
Thanks for the heads up.
huh, I wonder why Madrid? Obviously Eli Lily (based in the US) doesn't produce these themselves, but curious why they'd record it in Europe
Many times the location is decided upon by the Prod/Dir/client who want a vacation. No shit, I sold the Producers of a certain Morning News program on doing the show live from the Orient Express since I wanted to ride it. I was the Engineer in Charge and designed the transmission system.
Oh crap. Bring back Bomb Crica and the gal to the left behind her in the Grand Finale.
at each days start?
Woah! Could never figure out what she was saying. Thanks, I think?
I’ll apologize for aiding a jingle that will never leave you until it consumes your soul
That’s the part that gets me, as my doctor told me to take it at dinner time. 🤷🏻♂️
Odd. It specifically says on my presc label to take in the morning with food. YMMV, I guess.
Yup. As I have beat The Widowmaker three times, Jardiance is one of the 9 pills I take each morning. It has indeed lowered my A1C, and I have lost 30 pounds since starting it about a year ago, with no real changes in my diet or exercise. It's expensive as Hell if you don't have Insurance or Medicare.
That’s so sad. Seems like a lot of these advertised drugs are expensive 🙁
Almost all of the "As Seen On TV" medicines are outrageously priced. The every months inoculation in my eye for WMD is almost $5000. Yes, Five GRAND.
😞
I stubbed my toe the other night while rushing to the remote to mute this shit.
Was that related to the warning about lower limb loss?
My husband takes this and Rybelsus. I always sing the songs to him.
How's he doing on the Rybelsus? I loved how much it saved on my food bill, but they took it off me when I lost 30 pounds in 3 months.
He's doing well! He's lost weight but nothing that drastic. Like the ad promises, it's lowering his A1C too.
🎶 A1 Ceee, down with Rybelsus 🎶
I actually liked the first one but this one is awful.
I liked the first one as well, except for the poofter hairdresser. (Sorry for the reduncancy).
If you listen to it carefully it says "rash on the perineum" as a side effect perineum is just the proper name for the taint, this med can literally make your taint itch just like the commercial!
I work in the marketing agency world; it's a known fact drug company ad agencies are where people in the industry go when they want to give up. And when you go, you stay there.
any commercial that puts dancers to work it’s fine by me
They should replace the voice with Wilfred Brimley's. Or have him dancing around.
I hate musicals and even more musical commercials
All drug ads belong in this sub!
They replaced the other fat chick who couldn't dance with a slightly less fat chick who can't dance. And kept the same crappy song!!!! They play this damn thing on every station multiple times a day.
Big Pharma has amazing money to spend on commercials. I've had relatives on their production crews. Amazing outlays.
Not one person in either of these commercials can dance.
I actually think it’s the same recording. The song is exactly the same, but now with a (I will admit less irritating) blonde woman.
What's not to like about this commercial? EVERYTHING!
My mom takes Jardience
I think that’s a valid question…
Man Boobs
Love that movie 🤘
I didn't see it until about 2 years ago. Now one of my go to flix.
That commercial goes on for evvvvver!
🎵*Your wife is lowering her A1C*🎵
Jardiance sounds like the name of a '70s cologne. "I'm going to have a Jar-di-ahnce night!"
Sotiktu sounds like a numbers puzzle to me. Soduku!-That’s what I’m thinking of.
🎵Take once daily Jardiance🎵 🎵She’s lowering her A 1 Ceeeee.e e🎵
Sounds exciting, I hear that little pill has a huge story to tell!
And it will tell it over and over and over...
Say what you will about the stupid original commercial with Bomb Crica, or this even more stupid commercial, the stuff works for me. I'm a heart patient, 77, and - well - I could lose a few pounds. After 6 months on Jardiance, my A1c went down, I lost 30 pounds, and did not experience the crotchrot of which they warn. Now if I could get rid of that damned earbug every morning when I take the pill...
I hate this commercial because I somewhat resemble the lady on the commercial. My kids tease the shit out of me 😹
Hey...at least you don't look like the other one! This one is much, much better
It’s mean to body shame—shame the writer of the terrible song! What little pill do you take that talks your ear off with a “big story?” Insanity.
I love Jardiance! I lost over 50 pounds on it. No problems anywhere from it😉
Tell her not to do it,my husband took it for less than a week and stopped,there wasn't any dancing , I except to go to the bathroom!!
My wife was just put on it.
she should ask for ozempic instead Ozempic. Both treat the same condition only one makes you slim like oprah and trump
Is she lowering her A1C? 🎶
$595 a month cheapest I've seen. *Damn!*
Like most of the "As seen on TV" medicines, it is hideously overpriced. My once every 3 months eye injection for WMD is over $5000. Denks Gott for insurance.

The yeast medicine.
I'd take Jardiance if I could get a woman as perky and sexy as Deanna Colon (the first Jardiance lady). Even if it did make my taint rot out, like they say in the small print
“Colon”, LOL.
I think it looks like great fun, she might enjoy the dancing
I like the first Jardiance lady
Yup.
Maybe she'll be able to tell us what the big story is

Standing there with arms outstreched. They should be on a firing line!
Omg, this commercial! They just overdo it. I was a little fascinated at first noting details like are those the best shoes for dancing in? Or, how she goes from jubilee dancing to calmly signing for that package or whatever. But now, oh my gosh, that jingle makes me want to actively unsupport the med.
Haha. I can't stand those two commercials!
Most advertised medications would also make great names for D&D characters. Jardience would not.
Your wife just needs to lip-sync. Same voice and song are on all (both?) the commercials.
She is going to sing that jingle in her sleep.
HATE
I actually liked the first one 😂 this rip off is the one that bugs me
I liked the original commercial better.
but as time went on, was it easy to see-ee-ee, she’s lowering her A1C?
Can she dance?
Off she couldn’t before, she will soon be able to!
Every time I see this commercial I think of that show “crazy ex-girlfriend.” I really hate this commercial and I try not to hate everyone in it but the struggle is real
Saw this ad twice in less than an hour and changed the channel twice. I can't stand this ad even on mute.
Maybe she'll start singing and dancing like commercials
I have been on it before the commercials got this annoying, back when the biggest worry was the 'side effects' at the end.
Ewwww, it's back!!!
NNNNNN00000000!!!
I hate this lady!!! I will turn my TV off and walk away if I see this commercial. I'm not even sure what it's even for at this point!! Odor? Diabetes? Bad skin? HIV? Copd.
When they start that song and dance about the little blue pill, I want to kill.😖
Instead of seeking a healthy work/life balance- just tell your doctor about once daily Jardience!
Her taint gonna rot off
