It’s awful when a patient doesn’t know what’s happening, and takes a medication for a specific purpose, but then develops side effects that may be more damaging than its positive effects. The patient needs to know that, and to be able to say, I’m stopping now. That’s the responsibility of the doctor who prescribes the medication, or the pharmacist who supplies it.
