Beschreibung
This book offers a comprehensive and readable insight into the world of medicines for a wider audience without medical or pharmaceutical education – how they are created, why some are available over the counter while others require a prescription, why new drugs are so expensive, and what happens to them when they become generics. The author clearly explains the facts about drugs, their research, approval, and life cycle. At the same time, he debunks widespread myths and clarifies the difference between medicines and dietary supplements.
Is cocaine really contained in Coca-Cola?
Can the "morning-after" pill destroy a fertilized egg?
Was AIDS meant to be used for the extermination of homosexuals?
Answers to these myths and other questions from the world of medicines that we only know from the packaging are brought to you by this accessible guide.
