I think you're confusing things. No cholesterol lowering agent was ever taken off the market because it made males more aggressive. And the testosterone-based "steroids" will have the same effect upon women as far as aggression. However, they will not affect all men or all women the same. Individuals respond as individuals to these and other drugs as well.

You are technically correct. The drug was Baycol, it wasn't banned. The manufacturer, Bayer, withdrew it from the market after ~ 100 violent deaths.

The irony is that from what I read finding a source for my claim (God, I love FR!) it seems that low cholesterol, regardless of cause, is associated with violent death.

IOW, Baycol was a victim of it's own success!

Thanks for putting me through the pain of the search. Ya learn something every day.
