E-drug: Help - drug regulation
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear e-druggers,
I am looking for a study on the European and/or American drug
circulation system and how tightly controlled it is, for instance
something that measures the market share of products without any
marketing approval.
This is in the context of pressure from the drug industry and its
allies on a foreign health Ministry toward not using the drug patent
compulsory-licensing provisions existing in its law, on the ground
that cheap medicines in the South kill drug markets and drug
research in the North. The Ministry is looking for literature to
substantiate its objections to that spiel. Thank you for replying
directly to me rather than on the list.
