    Americans must wait up to 19 years after a discovered treatment before they can participate in benefits of a new medication (Philipson & Sun, 2008). The regulatory process drug manufacturers need to endure before releasing potentially life-saving medication is an extremely expensive, time-consuming process. The Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER) is the main department of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) responsible for the safety of drugs (both prescription and over-the-counter) sold in the United States (Food and Drug Administration, 2011). This department scrutinizes the testing of new drugs and determines if they are safe and effective before distribution. They do not perform in-house testing themselves; they only evaluate the testing done by the manufacturer to make sure the drug claim is accurate and that the benefits of the medication out way the side-effects (Food and Drug Administration, 2011). Whereas the FDA’s regulation and oversight protects dangerous products from circulation, the approval process hinders manufacturers’ ability to release drugs in a timely manner because of the legal and cost liability, thus preventing the availability of treatment to Americans.…

    Pharmacy is a noble respected profession guided by strict laws and regulations. Pharmacists are the care providers who are responsible to provide drug therapies that improve the quality of life of a patient and their family. Previously pharmacists were only thought to be a drug dispenser but now they are the care providers of the community (Lai, Trac, Lovett, 2013). In the 1800s, pharmacists played the role of apothecary, a medical professional that prepared and sold drugs in earlier times (Lai, Trac, Lovett, 2013). Towards the end of the 1900s to the present, pharmacists have focused on responding to manage care and new concerns about the quality of patient care (Lai, Trac, Lovett, 2013).…
