  • However from another side it s better to make publically funded organizations and clinical research which can enable making pulbically funded cheap drugs.

  • Drug development is mostly don by companies. University work only in the eraly stage. Drug development is really very expensive. I think there is no other way than extend the patent protection lifetime. I don't understand why it's not done yet. It can be at least 4-5 years more which will give much more money for R&D. The best technolgies in this field go from big pharma. Main goal of universities is to make drug candidates good enough that big pharma can buy and develop them.

  • i think if they reduced the marketing budget, they would have a lot more money to put into research.

    Advertising is very expensive, and in my country it's actually illegal to advertise prescription drugs to the public. So most of the marketing budget goes to wining & dining doctors - to encourage them to prescribe your company's drugs more.

    It's still a lot of money that could be better spent researching new drugs.

  • is drug development mainly done by Drug Companies, or Universities?

  • Both of them, Universities guide Companies how to Drug.

  • Amazing ...make me understand drug development.
