There are some people who are desperate and have tried everything else. In fact, I know somebody with a heart condition about to go on it, and she understands the risks. But if it works for her she might NEVER go off it during the remainder of her life, and I am praying that THIS drug will be what she needs. She has suffered a lot.
No - don't throw the baby out with the bath water.
What is needed is TESTING to give KNOWLEDGE - BEFORE starting the med. We need to know who should NOT take this drug.
