There are 4 stages that drugs have to go through when being tested. It takes longer than people want, it costs more than it should and at times it might keep a possible cure away from someone that needs it.
But we have safe drugs when used properly. I personally do not want to go back to the 1800s when anything could be sold as a cure without any proof or testing.
Think about it, there was a time when heroin was good for coughs, or get this, relief from teething pain for your infants. Oh, and it was non addictive. Like I said, there are reasons for the testing.
F, the FDA when they started meddling with people who sell natural products just because they could and gave free passes to the chemical bullies they earn the right to be shut down.Trump’s Potential FDA Pick Says Drugmakers Shouldn’t Have to Prove Their Products Work Before Selling Them
Now drug company doesn't have to proof drug effectiveness before selling it.
Is that bad?
Sound bad right?
Till you know that they simply do not have to proof that their drug is effective to GOVERNMENT.
The drug may be effective. Proofing it is difficult. Proofing anything obvious is difficult to government officials.
Government is very inefficient at judging anything. Resorting to government or court system to certify anything is useless.
How do you know that the more effective drugs will not be approved precisely because it's too effective and their competitors bribe the government.
Drug companies will need to proof the effectiveness of the drug on free market.
I think they should put a warning label that FDA doesn't proof it yet and let the customers and doctors decide.
There are a lot of studies available on the natural available online. The medical associations have been pushing to keep any and all natural methods stopped. Connecticut's Vet association even pushed to have it made illegal for Vets to try alternative methods unless they were approved by them. There are people out there doing crowd funding trying to find cures for things like Lyme disease as too many are sick of being lab rats for docs and pharmaceutical companies.Some drugs for orphan diseases take decades to get approval from FDA.
Many patients who are dying or suffering are willing to try drugs if there is any hope what so ever of benefit.
We don't need a new type of aspirin that is more toxic than heroin so companies can earn a few billion. Research and development, especially with the use of new super computers can analyse new drugs much faster and safer.
There is risk eating piece of fruit or drinking a glass of water.
It should be up to the patient and how desperate they are or willing to be a science experiment to help others.
Half the people with the orphan disease could be dead by the time the FDA decides it is safe enough.
Change is vitally needed within the FDA. No it will not just reject pretesting before it can be tried on humans, but in some cases there might be less lengthy and costly process to get drugs to those who need it yesterday, in hopes of giving them a bit more time "now".
Hopefully it will also cut the cost of drugs not now considered tier 1 or 2 where insurance will pay part or all, instead of costing the patient $1000 a month or more for just a single med, often they require three or more for a single condition.
I'd like to see more testing of drugs in conjunction with homeopathic or herbals meds and alternative treatments. I've heard a lot of anecdotal stories from patients that have been able to cut their drugs in half with the right combination of herbs, teas, therapy and unconventional diet. If it works for them, I'm happy to try and accommodate their needs. It is more about quality of life.
I'd been thrilled to see a shake up in the FDA.

depending what ails you, we all might miss your posts.If they do this then I'll trust smoking pot before i'll try any medicine in this country.
Republicans & their Insurance buddies force regulation down our throat. Building codes, inspection fees & regulations, NEC Codes, Fire codes, HOA codes & fees, DEA, FDA, etc. They extend patents for kickbacks & campaign contributions forcing us to pay the highest prices on the planet.
They now forceyou to install AFCI/GFCI circuit breakers on Refrigerators/Freezers so your freezer will waste all your food. They want to force schools & business to add ADA compliant Gay Bathrooms. They oppose stem-cell so the USA falls behind the world in biotechnology we created. They are the most anti employee, anti productive & anti progress party.
The only regulations Repubtards oppose is ones that require them to pay workers or prevent Job killing unproductive financial Ponzi Schemes. Wallstreet explodes as jobs & pay fall behind while prices rise.
yes, especially in California.Will more pot be available?
Good for you, in any public venue; you can claim to put your trust in a god, over any Man by way of a holy Bible. Genesis 1:29-31.If they do this then I'll trust smoking pot before i'll try any medicine in this country.
I suggest switching to decaf, and replacing your LSD with Thorazine.Republicans & their Insurance buddies force regulation down our throat.
