Drug Testing

Before ending up in pharmacy, each drug must be tested on healthy individuals and in patients. And even if they are fewer in number, some lend themselves readily. Who are they? They incur risks?
It's only after receiving authorization from some agency of health safety of products and the favorable opinion of the Committee to protect people that start a clinical test.
Almost everyone: you must be over eighteen, or be 16 years and, in this case, it is the parents who sign the authorization.
What are the risks?
The use of a drug is never trivial, because the side effects are still possible. Most often, it is skin allergies, stomach pain, nausea. If more severe reactions sometimes occur, it is exceptional. Clinical tests are well supervised, the risk is calculated, it is not in the wild experimentation.
