'Using medications off-label is all about risk-benefit' Would appear so if the above equation made sense. If a patient is critical likely to die, the risk is low (re drug interactions) while the potential benefit is high. That's how we got 'right to try' laws. It is like the doctor not prescribing pain meds to a terminal cancer patient because of the risk of addiction.
