> Scientists and researchers in the medical field need to realize everyone is different and we have different reactions to various drugs. You really think that they do not realize this? The whole reason for phase 3 trials is to have a candidate drug tested on a sufficiently large and diverse population that represents the treatment population in order to look for these very variations. If there is anyone who doesn’t want to recognize this, it would be the actuaries at the insurance companies. > I guarantee you that carbamazepine was causing my apnea problems. I never suggested otherwise. I merely said that a statistically significant number of such cases did not show up in trials so it wasn’t listed as a side effect for doctors to look out for. Your comment about vaers doesn’t make much sense either. Vaccines have absolute insurance coverage provided by the government so that companies will make them at all. Vaers is a postmarket surveillance system for the government. Both Moderna and Pfizer’s Covid vaccines have been through the full phase 1,2,3->NDA process (i.e. no longer under emergency use authorization) including ae surveillance.
