Why Are Drugs So Expensive?

Why are drugs so expensive? Millions of Americans are having problems affording essential and life-saving medicines. Why is this all so costly and difficult? In this book, we will go through the drug development process in the US to give you an idea of what is involved in getting a new drug to the market. We think it will surprise you to learn how complex the process actually is, and it will give you a perspective on all the work that has gone into that pill or capsule that you are taking. We will also cover additional topics, such as generic drugs and patents, so you can understand that once a drug is on the market, there are still many changes that can occur which will affect the life of the drug.
