Talk:List of withdrawn drugs

message: No assessment has been done of systematic social bias regarding withdrawn drugs. Researchers may find correlations between a drug and some side effects not observed during initial investigation of the drug and assume they are direct consequence of the use of said drug, but scarcely test the hypothesis that (some) patients using the drug have also concomitantly applied some other substance without their knowledge. This is easily explainable several ways: superstition, social circle beliefs, selective perception of natural remedies as irrelevant... 
For example, the knowledge that some patient is using some drug may be associated popularly to the need to supply some popular remedy just by the name of the medication. Societies may be so convinced of their belief that some consequences must be reached that they apply some substance as cause while the patient is curing herself with prescribed medication, to produce unexpected results. Some cases of poisoning by recipe would be exposed by conditions after a prescribed drug cures the patient so that poisoning takes another form, causing a second condition apparently as a consequence of the prescribed drug. 
This paradigm is very evident in the belief of Mexican Indians, for whom the use of marijuana, a socially desirable recreational drug, has to be accompanied eventually by the use of psilocybin, a socially undesirable recreational and ritual drug which can be consumed with any meal without the smoker knowing it. It is also the belief of policy enforcers that some substances must lead to consequences easily forced on patients through other substances, turning into self fulfilling and self sustaining prophecies as there will be interests in producing the enforcers condition independently of users and enforcers. 
It may also be in the interest of manufacturers that a very effective drug be withdrawn lest it reduce the market for a set of profitable drugs. Generally speaking, any substance can lead to the social forcing of side effects on its users through concomitant conditions including substance administration. If investigators do not realize this principle, useful lines of research may be pruned at the root.
