Yes! ”All things are poison.” Every prescription drug is toxic. Prescription drugs are especially toxic. Prescription drugs have to be potent to obtain a response in the body. It is all about the dosage. Thus, the saying: ”The dose makes the poison.”

”All things are poison, and nothing is without poison, the dosage alone makes it so a thing is not a poison.
—Paracelsus[1]
"The dose makes the poison" (Latin: sola dosis facit venenum) is an adage intended to indicate a basic principle of toxicology. It is credited to Paracelsus who expressed the classic toxicology maxim "All things are poison, and nothing is without poison, the dosage alone makes it so a thing is not a poison." This is often condensed to: "The dose makes the poison" or in Latin, "Sola dosis facit venenum". It means that a substance can produce the harmful effect associated with its toxic properties only if it reaches a susceptible biological system within the body in a high enough concentration (i.e., dose).[2]”
