This is irresponsible. This drug has severe side effects, it makes absolutely no sense to prescribe it for a completely different disease without first confirming in clinical trials that it has positive effects.
> if there's no suscipicion this drug could cause new problems, we should have people massively use it
That's not how evidence-based medicine works. The drug is known to cause new problems because of the side effects. Clinical trials are needed to determine whether these are outweighed in patients by positive health effects.
You do not prescribe medicine on the basis of hunches.
