Prescription Drug Development

Tuesday, December 23, 2008
Prescription Drug Development

Most of us will, at one time or another, need a prescription drug - they can keep us from getting infections, lower our blood pressure, and for people with serious illnesses, they can even make the difference between life and death. But where do they come from? Who invents prescription drugs and how are they tested and developed? And what about generic versions - are they as good as the name brands? Tune in this Tuesday when we learn more about the development of prescription drugs. This is an archive edition of the show, so we're unable to take calls today.
