How many people have taken this?
[edit]It would be helpful to get some statistical estimates of how many people have taken this medication. That would help me, as a consumer, evaluate its effectiveness and safety. I think it's a fairly rare medication, but I'm not sure. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Skysong263 (talk • contribs) 15:16, 8 May 2018 (UTC)
