They're not exogenous.
The effect requires too high a dosage.
The effect doesn't actually change how the bodily cells function, only how they appear
They are a drug, most people just don't view them like that

Care must be given to prescribing because the margin of safety is small.

You can attach chemicals in a more dense form onto a lipid-soluble drug than a water-soluble drug
The immune system would recognize water-soluble drugs as invaders and fight them
The blood brain barrier is only a barrier for water-soluble molecules so lipid soluble drugs pass through
Water-soluble drugs would alter the pH value of the bloodstream and therefore have significant side effects compared to lipid-soluble drugs.
