Agree with all except wondering what you mean by the safety profile being not great?

It's been around for 70 years, taken by millions over very long periods of time with relatively minimal negative side effects.

Idk you could google it? But as anecdotal evidence I had to take it as a kid as a prophylactic against malaria. So did literally everyone I knew back then.
