Hidden Safety information edit

I have hidden the section on Safety information; Wikipedia is not a manual of medical advice. -- Donald Albury 10:45, 23 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Adverse effects is a normal section for drug articles. See WP:MEDMOS for more information about what's typically included in an article like this. WhatamIdoing (talk) 18:32, 23 July 2008 (UTC)Reply

Costs revisited edit

There is more about the end-user costs due to lawyers, insurance, admins, etc.:

Is anything being done to address these costs? As I understand it, it's not uncommon in the case of envenomation to require treatment with 20 to 40 vials (on the high end) of the drug. And please correct me if I'm wrong about these numbers. 57.135.233.22 (talk) 03:30, 6 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
