Research, testing, and development of a new item
The health and safety of the consumers of any item, especially drugs, is the priority of any manufacturing organization. The process of developing medicine or drugs is rigorous, which must pass through numerous phases or stages before it is deemed fit, and safe for use. It has to go through the required regulations, where all critical tests and research necessary are conducted and approved by relevant bodies or authorized institutions.
Research, testing, and development of a new item, especially take more than 12 years for its approval and acceptance as fit and safe for use. Before drugs are administered to the first patients, it should have been tested through all the process cycle to avoid risking or endangering the life of the people. Though dozens of items and drugs introduced in the market every year, many are not approved for use.
The safety and analysis of new items, especially pharmaceuticals, should be done following the international health standards. Testing and researching for the safety of the drug are done during the development process. It is during the process of development that all tests and research are carried out for its effectiveness and safety. They are having an understanding of the disease process and procedures that new drugs and treatments are manufactured. Researchers look for compounds from fungi, plants, aquatics animals, and natural compounds that are used to test if the drug is fit ad safe for use. It is not justifiable with the modern research and guidelines to test and analyze the drug or any item when it is the market. The World Health Organization (WHO) has stipulated all the processes, tests, and research when coming up with new drugs in the market.
In conclusion, new items, especially drug introduction in the market, are sensitive and, therefore, should follow due process. Some drugs are tested during the development process while others after. However, there are safety measures put in place to ensure their safety and effectiveness for those using. All safety measures are evaluated before the drug administration to the patients.
