Not safe, but perhaps not as harmful as they should think? I think I know what you're getting at though. I forget sometimes that a lot of people don't have a lot of info regarding the lethality of certain meds. Therefore, one must treat a "safe" med the same as a "deadly" med (in overdose of course), because we don't want to encourage overdoses of any type of med to cause harm/death.
