Some are and some are not. I think insulin is a very good alternative to dying because of diabetes.

M'kay!

Not easy to answer, take alcohol for instance. It is very bad for the developping brain of a child or fetus. While in adults moderate use of alcohol is said to be good for heart and blood vessels while excessive use is never good. Again for people with certain medical conditions alchol is not good either. While in social situations (limited) alcohol use can have a positive effect. So it is not a question one can easily answer with yes or no.

I don't think all drugs are good. I have to take a very low dose diuretic and I hate it because it makes so dizzy. But by and large drugs save millions of lives every year and I am flabbergasted you do not acknowledge this in your answer choices. I had to choose "yellow" because it was the only choice that gives credit to the good drugs like penicillin, insulin, coumadin, doxazosin, ranitidine, and I could flip through my PDR and name thousands more good drugs. Your choices were very short-sighted in my opinion.

The wise use of drugs saves far more lives in a single day than the unwise use of drugs take in an entire year!

People on this site *constantly* say they answer the questions the way they think the questioner meant them to be answered. Unfortunately I'm not "most people" and I answer the questions according to a more literal reading of them.
