From simply using natural substances and plant extracts for the treatment of diseases to systematic and extensive research processes, the pharmaceutical research and development services industry has, indeed, evolved tremendously. The demand for fast and effective medications and drugs, especially for contagious diseases that did not have cure then, paved the way for this fast evolution.

The pharmaceutical industry is responsible for the development of new drugs and medicines that aim to address the different health issues and diseases that the world is facing. And although drug development has been evident since the early times, it was only during the 19th century that the pharmaceutical industry started to use the modern processes of developing and introducing medications to the market.

Today, research and development in the pharmaceutical industry involves high-end equipment and revolutionary procedures. A drug would have to undergo a series of processes and tests, including toxicology, metabolic studies, and pre-clinical pharmacology, before it could be ready for human trial and eventually for introduction to the market. It is a trial-and-error methodology, but with this complicated and extensive endeavor, the industry is able to produce the most effective and safest medication to treat different human diseases.

The world’s continuous battle against many health issues, along with the discovery of new illnesses, has made the role of the pharmaceutical industry challenging and critical. And while the success of pharmaceutical research and development lies on the availability of resources, including excellent scientific talents and knowledgeable individuals, the success of the pharmaceutical industry depends on adequate research and development.

This is what they don’t want the American people to know….

THE BAYH DOYLE ACT THE FIRST STEP TOWARDS COMMERCIALIZATION
This Act that Reagan introduced was intended to encourage the spreading of pharmaceutical education so that universities and the odd small business could patent the scientific discoveries from pharmaceutical research.

So, the public would pay for research that would ultimately serve the public’s health interest, in an industry that instantly became private. Our money then would now go to these big pharmaceutical companies instead of to improving the health of the American people.

The Bayh Doyle Act then has resulted in making the pharmaceuticals industry a $200 billion dollar industry every year. These are now the richest companies in the world.

And this has effectively changed the manner in which pharmaceutical education is disseminated. Now clinical trials are more biased than ever before, non-reporting of actual results is not happening, and the education behind real time data is being obscured and muddied. This is really happening people!

WHERE ARE YOUR DRUG DOLLARS GOING?
But wait, there is more. The government is behind all of it. In fact, the pharmaceutical industry is the largest lobbying body in Washington as we speak.

In 2002, the pharmaceutical industry employed almost 700 lobbyists, 26 of whom were former Congressmen, to lobby the government for higher costs in Medicare and more profits for the pharmaceutical industry.

That effort alone cost the taxpayers $91 million dollars alone, not to mention the challenges that the increased costs of Medicare incurred on the average American.

The corruption and scandal that lies behind the doors of the pharmaceutical industry is the education this country really needs, not the propaganda that we are paying for them to spit out.

I like to keep people informed of things like this, because the naysayers in this section work for and are paid by these same companies that try to keep us stupid. Their big money profits depend on keeping you and I in the dark.

We are taking back AMERICA! and not gonna take it anymore! You can believe that!
Hey Round 2, Little do you know that the pharmaceutical companies big money also finds it’s place in the lawyers pockets also. People need to open their eyes because I can see by comments like this that people just don’t KNOW!

In the race to get the next billion-dollar drug into the market, pharma companies need to continuously keep up with several rules and regulations brought out by regulatory authorities. It’s a huge challenge since there needs to an open communication channel through which critical information needs to go back and forth between authorities and the drug manufacturer.

Pharmaceutical regulations are an absolute necessity in this era of cutthroat competition among drug companies. It’s what ensures that the public gets the best possible cure while minimizing the adverse effects of drugs on users. With news of drugs being withdrawn from the markets and with drug regulations becomes stringent by the day, pharmaceutical companies are investing in effective regulatory compliance software that make their work a whole lot easier and quicker.

Compulsory licensing of essential medicines doesn’t always provide the greatest help to the poorest people of the world according to a round table highlighted by The Policy Network. The danger of compulsory licensing is that it can be abused by some in developing countries and create a culture of disrespect for intellectual property. The solution, rather than overt compulsory licensing, is to encourage these governments to respect intellectual property, thus creating incentives for the development of new medicines or technology. As mentioned by Dr.Bibek Debroy, Research Director at India’s Rajiv Gandhi Institute, when a property owner is allowed to protect his rights to the land, it provides him an incentive to develop and improve the land. Pharmaceutical intellectual property protection gives the developer the ability to finance the further advancement of that medicine. A compulsory license that is granted without sufficient cause dilutes the incentive for the developer of the medicine to improve the product.

How Compulsory Licensing Works

The concept of compulsory licensing for pharmaceuticals was originally developed to give the poorest countries in the world access to essential medicines in a time of crisis. For example, let’s say an African country is being overrun by an AIDS epidemic, but they can’t afford the brand name medications to be shipped overseas in the quantity they need. A compulsory license allows them to use the patent of the medication to manufacture it on their own so long as a royalty is paid to the intellectual property owner. However, the concept could be abused by pirates in developing countries to create generics of the drug with intent on capitalizing on a business opportunity.

The Intellectual Property Solution

Fortunately, a 2003 amendment to TRIP by the WTO to give the poorest countries alternatives to receiving the medicine they need has helped restore the concept of the compulsory license to its original intent. The amendment gives more oversight to making sure the medicines reach their intended destinations and are properly distributed as well as ensures that compulsory licenses are granted only to countries that do not have the means to develop their own medicines.
