Like everyone else except crooked big pharma, and the FDA, I hate those ads.

However, the ban would be chipping away at the First Amendment. Just as gun bans are chipping away at the Second Amendment.

Alcohol and cigarette advertising is already banned, so it's already been chipped away at.

Additionally, the purpose of drug advertising is not to sell drugs.

The purpose of drug advertising is to become the primary source of "brought to you by Pfizer" advertising revenue for the antique gaslight "news" media so they will never publish anything negative about the pharmaceutical industry.

It appears to me that drug ads themselves are an offense to the first amendment because the drug companies use them as blackmail to suppress negative news about themselves.
