    I would have thought calls for these drugs to be taken off the market to be rather alarmist.

    Surely there are many products that can lead to stroke and heart attack if overused. A more balanced response would be to call for a refined prescription for use.

    Furthermore, for those of us who are at low risk of cardiovascular problems an increase of 86% of a small chance is still a small chance.
