Side Effects in Drugs Passed On To Clinical Trials


Clinical trials are in place to study the efficiency and safety of the un approved drug.  Clinical trials are conducted investing millions of dollars. The outcome of the clinical trial will fit in the desired results only when the benefits provided by the new drug outweigh the risks from the new drug. To reduce the failure rate of the clinical trial that involves million dollar investment, the researchers found out a new approach to the find out the side effects in the drug formulation before it reaches the clinical trial process. The current practice that exists in the clinical trial process does not help much. The drugs are tested on the animals to trace out the side effects before passing them to the clinical trials. 

Animals react in a different way when compared to humans so; the side effects can make an easy way to clinical trials. When the medicines are sent for testing and FDA approval which do not compromise on the safety and efficiency, the clinical trial is a great failure.
