Sorry that I didn't express myself adequately for your understanding.

I responded to your assertion that FDA no longer requires proof of 
efficacy. You reported that some book taught you that the FDA doesn't 
review clinical studies. Either the book or you apparently do not 
understand either the strengths or the shortcomings of scientific clinical 
studies. Apparently you feel that cussing and name calling will cover up 
your lack of understanding of these important, albeit subtle, issues.

I can assure you that I never prescribed that particular agent. I can also 
assure you that I have prescribed other agents that experience proved to be 
useless or harmful. As an adult, I understand that there are no guarantees 
in life. I offered you examples of agents in which many physicians have 
been "wrong", me included. I really don't find it all that difficult to 
accept error as an opportunity to learn how to avoid that error.

Maybe, you will mature and gain such a talent. It would be very valuable to 
a genius. Maybe you will post on a real world AT issue.
