Faith in Medicine

I noticed recently on a commercial for a new drug Veramyst (don’t remember what it is for –asthma maybe?) that in small letters at the bottom of the screen it says “the way Veramyst works is not totally understood.” Excuse me? First of all, how does a drug get FDA approval if we don’t know how it works? Secondly, do they really expect people to take a medicine that isn’t fully understood by their doctor? Not that any doctor is going to admit that of course, but geez. Might as well just call it magic or the will of God. Hey there’s an idea – market it solely to Christians and say it works through Jesus’ love.
