Okay kiddo, let me explain what ethics means first. Ethics means doing what is right and morally good. Now, let's talk about pharmaceutical sales.
Pharmaceutical sales is when companies that make medicine hire people to go out and tell doctors and hospitals about their medicines, and try to get them to buy and use them. But sometimes these people can be dishonest and only want to sell as much medicine as possible, without thinking about whether it is really good for the patient. That's where ethics comes in.
Being ethical in pharmaceutical sales means putting the patient's health first before selling medicine. It means not lying about what the medicine can do, and not pushing doctors or hospitals to buy a medicine they don't really need. It also means being honest about any potential side effects, and only recommending the medicine if it's the best option for the patient.
Some companies have rules about ethics in pharmaceutical sales to make sure that their employees are doing the right thing. And if someone is found to be acting unethically, they might get in trouble or even lose their job. So, it's really important to be ethical in pharmaceutical sales, because it can affect people's health and well-being!
