LANSING (WKZO-AM) — The Michigan Department of Health has designed a new advertisement that should appeal to the vanity and logic of a teenager to scare them away from trying stolen prescription drugs.
It starts by showing a very disheveled and depressed looking “Hailey” wondering what went wrong, then proceeds to show exactly why her life is a shambles and she is a wreck, and it all begins with her first drug experience.
It’s being aired on television, but it is also being placed online and at movie theatres.
The unauthorized use of prescription drugs by teens has doubled in the last five years.
