Not in the US style of drug ads, but not completely banned either; things like Tylenol and the various cold and flu drugs can be advertised. I’ve never seen ads for something that would be prescription-only in other countries except for Viagra and a coupe of other ED drugs, and that’s an edge case.

As far as I can see all drug advertisements (including things such as social media promotions) have to be approved by the Saudi FDA, and they don’t seem lenient at all in allowing ads for anything beyond the aforementioned meds.
