The first “real” drug I was on was Cymbalta. As I was leaving the office with my prescription, I noticed a Cymbalta clock on the wall. And then Cymbalta notepads on the counter.
That’s pretty normal for any doctor’s office. There is almost certainly items from other brands all over the back area where the patients don’t go, too. Drug reps go hard on the cheap freebies so the office will always have a reminder that their drug exists. If you ever see someone in the waiting room who is particularly attractive and dressed far nicer than average, that is usually a rep who is there to drop more goodies and shill their drug. As I understand it, it’s a very lucrative job.

Peddling.
Pedalling would be for a bicycle and the like.
