Yes, but Leslie, you have to take into consideration occurrences like this.

A three-year-old with new onset of moderate persistent asthma is on my exam table. I tell the mother she needs Pulmicort and Singulair as well as albuterol.

But, the three-year-old looks down at the exam table paper with its purple Advair brand and demands Advair. That was when I saw the benefit of the government mandate.

THIS, OF COURSE, WAS ALL SARCASM.
