By the way, the strongest advice I ever got from a pharmacist was not to ask for or use the latest new drugs unless you are terminal and have exhausted all other options. The level of testing and trials required for approval is absurdly low.

When taking the latest and greatest drugs you are, in effect, only the next phase of testing.
