Statins is another one.

Also, SSRI use in pregnant women is leading to higher NICU admissions, infant mortality, neonatal heart defects, & various withdrawal symptoms in babies such as jitteriness, sleeplessness & lack of appetite.

Similarly, giving SSRIs & other anti-depressants to kids is IMO a massive problem. And it seems linked to the trans craze amongst youngsters: Just as SSRIs diminish both sexual response & appetite in adults who are already sexually mature, I think there's reason to suspect taking these drugs prior to or during puberty might blunt or actually stop the development of libido, sexual attraction & dawning awareness of one's sexual orientation. In one of her videos, Ben GNC talked about being put on SSRIs early on & she thinks they might've been a factor in her believing herself to be a gay man when she was really a young lesbian.

Yet despite all the known dangers & risks giving antidepressants to young kids, children are still being fed them - and at ever younger ages:

Similarly, hysterectomy, which can be life-saving and necessary but was pushed at me as a solution to the "problem" that I couldn't take hormone replacement at menopause due to my fibroids! These people saved me.

Similarly, hormone replacement for menopause itself, which might be appropriate for some of us but not on the mass scale they were thinking in the 90s.
