Now that Celebes are marketing online doctors and prescribing and the Trump Administration is working to lower the price this is more relevant.

The increase was from 0.1% to 0.2%. So double, but still very small.
The relative risk is incredibly small, since the base was small. I would say for many people the systemic benefits far outweigh the risk, especially if someone is morbidly obese.
