Prescription Drugs Summary

I read the article about the 35 FDA approved Prescription drugs. Overall, the whole thing is about the 35 approved drugs, there effects, and when they started selling and when they discontinued it. The importance of this issue is very high. It is very high because people don’t understand what is going on about it. Prescription drugs, when used incorrectly, or taken at a high amount, it is fatal. People do not realize how dangerous it actually is. Many people have died and have suffered due to misuse of prescription drugs. Some prescription drugs have terrible side effects that some consumers don’t know about. For example, Accutane has a problem for pregnant women. When pregnant and you consume Accutane, your baby has the probability to have birth defects, miscarriages, and  premature births.  This drug is made for treating acne. I personally think, that it is up to the user. I would hope the user talks to a professional doctor before taking it and does research. I know some experience about one of the drugs on the list.  So there are risks into taking prescription drugs. There is a risk into taking any drug to be honest. Like I said though, it is up to the user if one wants to try it and take the side effects. Although what is said, is not always possible to happen. Like back to Accutane. Experiences that I know about Accutane, did not all happen. With Accutane, there was a monthly blood check to make sure it does not kill your liver.

Do you think it should be up to the user?
