I think what she meant in that subject is she's not trying to tell people not to take medication if they truly need it, like your son, but if it isn't working for them for whatever reason it may not be the only way to go.

I think it is like all things. Some respond to meds and some don't. Me,for example, I am very sensivite to medicines and chemicals like soaps and household cleaners. I'm allergic to so many antibiotics. And even 2 of the 3 psych meds I've tried I had a bad reaction already, and the other one I'm super sensitive to it, I think. What's considered a normal dose for me is way too much. So, personally for me that might not always be the best answer.
