the drug was known to be teratogenic

I used "face cancer" when I thought accutane was in some kind of cream you'd smear all over your face ---but I wouldn't like to put anything teratogenic in my body or all over my body. What's the difference between teratogenic and carcinogenic? They're all mutagenic meaning they cause damage to DNA. And birth control pills aren't all that safe either when you see the number of patients using those who end up with coagulation disorders. I wonder what happens when someone takes both together?

Maybe I go too far the other way --but I won't even use tylenol. All those chemicals have some side effect I'd just as soon stay away from.

Not even Tylenol, huh? This is how I look at it... life is too short... if I don't have to be in pain, I won't. That's just the way I feel.
