Yes, that is the premise of my arguemnt.

There you go trying to excuse away potential dangers yet harping on about potential benefits. People have developed diabeties *solely* as the result of say zyprexa. Psychiatric medications can screw up your metabolism (zyprexa as a prime example). No not everybody is going to get diabetes, but some are - thats why lawsuits have been won against Lilly. To say that nobody will get diabetes on zyprexa if they just take care of thesmelves is a little inacurate. The same may be true for zoloft - we don't know unless we study further.

This logic - "I highly doubt that somebody will ever get sick as a result of drug x, so long as they take care of themselves" is very weak.

Perhaps I "highly doubt" that zoloft will really prove to be beneficial for cancer. It could be however, I don't know and unless it is researched further nobody will ever know.
