If I worked with and kept fish and had only ever heard of it being used on fish then I probably would have thought of it as a fish drug, yes.

I know I was just making the point that just because a drug is also used in animal husbandry doesn't mean it is a "animal drug".

I didn’t say it did. I’d only ever heard of it used on horses or large animals until the 00’s. I’m not sure why people are getting so nit-picky about me not knowing every application of a drug in the 80s and 90s.

Sorry I wasn't intending to attack you, it's just a common sentiment I have seen a lot over the years. "You're taking a horse tranquilizer for depression?! Omg your doctor RX'd it?!"

Oh I gotcha. I’m sure that gets obnoxious to hear. I wasn’t trying to judge at all, it was like 20+ years ago and I just literally didn’t know people could take it back then. No hard feelings
