@Kamaji I am going to even shock myself a little bit on this one,and take the FDA's side.
Mostly.
Yeah,time has proven them wrong,I suppose. Still,AT THE TIME they were banning it's use,it had not been proven to be either effective or safe,and it is the JOB of the FDA to make sure any medications approved for use in America are both safe and effective.
We just can't have it both ways. We either want them to be careful and thoroughly research any new and unproven drugs,and we want those drugs approved YESTERDAY!
That might be human nature,but both are not possible,so err on the side of safety.
