It's a good guideline - there are few enough instances on Wikipedia where simple vandalism can lead directly to serious physical harm, and this is one. Statistics and reported numbers are vandalism targets throughout Wikipedia every day, and dosage information would be a particularly popular target. We could put the dosage information in templates, and protect the templates, but that doesn't allay the range of other problems associated with including such information. We have to ask ourselves why someone would use Wikipedia to look up this sort of information - are those needs we want to fulfill?
It's also important to note that there are many other sources for this sort of information for medical professionals. Institutional or office subscriptions to electronic/online references like Micromedex are not prohibitively expense, there are a number of free or cheap physical reference books, and I even have a free and comprehensive reference on my phone.
