Of course, like any other drug you should first discuss its potential use with your doctor, particularly if you are hypotensive.

Regarding stem cell research, I too would like to see more of it, along with research in several other areas, like growth factors and vaccines to prevent protein misfolding. We all can have opinions, but no one knows in the end which will or won't work.
