Adding the clinical framing, because it changes how the question reads. It helps to ask what evidence would change your mind before you look at any. If nothing would, the discussion is not about evidence, and it is better to say so early than to spend nine posts discovering it.

Ask again with the specifics and you will get a better answer than this one.

Did your prescriber agree with that reading, and if not what was their objection?
