I agree. And regardless of where you stand on the issue, the current regulations with regards to off-label usage are totally inconsistent. Doctors are perfectly free to prescribe drugs for conditions that are completely unrelated to the what they were approved for.
Drug X is proven safe but not proven effective. It's illegal to use to treat condition Q under any circumstances. Drug Y is proven safe, proven effective for condition M. It's perfectly legal to use for unrelated condition Q. How does this make any sense?
