[QUOTE="ThatRobGuy, post: 67000052, member: 123415"] You have to keep in mind, there's no such thing as a safe drug...every drug from the most powerful statin all the way down to the lowest dose of vitamin C have side effects that will be experienced by X% of people. Every drug has a benefit:risk ratio...no exceptions. In a free society, we as the consumers have the right to evaluate those risks and decide whether or not we want to take them for elective purposes. I take a drug called finasteride. It's not for any medical necessity, it's to make my hair grow back after I started balding 6 years ago (and it works btw, 4 months in, I've got about 50% of my lost hair back and still seeing improvement :D) There were several side effects that you run the risk of in taking it, everything from sexual dysfunction, to gynocomastia, to lymph node issues. Luckily, I fell into the 90% of people who experience no side effects from it, however, I was well aware of the fact that there was a 1 in 10 chance that I would experience one of these sides, yet as an adult, I made the decision to try it out anyway. And in a free society, that's ok. [/QUOTE]
