Robin Williams was always known more for his outrageous antics than his commentary on issues surrounding topics like health and politics, but like most comedians who speak without a filter, he has the ability to absolutely nail it whenever he does.
Williams was not the type of comic to back down from sharing his opinions on controversial issues such as the over-use of prescription drugs in the United States of America, one of a select few nations that allows direct-to-television viewer advertising.
Case in point: the following rant he went on in about prescription drugs and the side effects that come with them. Williams shared his thoughts in the manic (as per usual) video shown below that discusses everything under the sun relating to the Rx drug industry and the side effects that consumers risk when taking said drugs from companies like Pfizer, Eli Lilly, Merck, Johnson & Johnson, Rock, AstraZeneca and others.

Dozens of comics have offered their own take on drug company side effects but the part he pulls off at the end is something completely unique, something that is genuinely Robin Williams (like pretty much every he produced in his career). Williams is at his comedic best in this video, a small reminder of why he was one of the most beloved comics to ever walk this Earth who will be remembered for decades if not centuries to come.
He also compares the change in attitudes among drugs from era to era, from “Robin, drugs will kill you” to “Robin, you need drugs to live,” as modern day doctors like to claim.
