Apart from the political turmoil, Candore was in the midst of a rare viral epidemic. Health authorities estimated that one percent of the population would be infected. ViroBlax is one of the drugs used in the treatment of this viral epidemic. Gentura was under severe pressure from the new government to produce ViroBlax at a subsidized price. This would cause a breach of the contract because subsidized production of ViroBlax violated the payment terms of the contract between Gentura and CadMex..

As the standard are chaning the, pharmaceutical companies play a significant role in promoting good health. If we are governed to obi by rules and regulation, then it necessary for the Pharmaceutical companies to live up ethical principles and corporate social responsibilities.

There are many ways in which prescription fraud can occur. Because of the plethora of ways, pharmacists must be alert and responsible in their actions. Many seem to believe that electronic prescribing has been found to reduce the number of errors and statistics and data reflects that. America cannot be ignorant in this matter. The new electronic system not being implemented is like going through life with a contagious deadly disease, you have the money for the cure, but yet you complain, sulk, and feel sorry for yourself instead of going to get the cure.
In her essay “Organ Sales Will Save Lives”, Joanna Mackay explains how legalizing kidney sales would be beneficial in more ways than one; saving the lives of patients willing to buy kidneys, and with legal compensation, helping to end poverty in the countries of those willing to sell. In her essay, Mackay explains that even though there are nearly 350,000 people suffering from end-stage renal disease, an almost always-fatal disease, treatment options are limited exclusively to transplant and dialysis. Though effective, dialysis is an expensive and painful process, making the patient dependent on a machine for the rest of their life. Transplant, however, is far more successful; new equipment and anti-rejection treatments make it an incredibly safe and effective procedure. When a matching donor can’t be found within immediate family members, patients must wait for a kidney from deceased donors, such as old age or accident victims.

Biological R&D is vastly different from small molecule R&D.
My theory also is that eventually people will start bidding on artificial organs and the richer people will have say over a family that doesn't have a lot of money. If doctors wanted to replace original organs with artificial ones, it would take a lot of perfecting and obligating a clean bill of health for the patient. Who, if anyone, should be a prime candidate for these types of artificial/synthetic replacements? Do you feel that anyone should have access to them? Even a life-long smoker or alcoholic who knowingly subjected themselves to harmful substances?
In Epidemiology they save life and increase health status of a population. Communicable disease such as AIDS and Hepatitis is a big challenge for U.K government and it increase pressure on department of finance’s due it’s to very costly treatment.

The company’s dependence on word-of-mouth advertising in lieu of utilizing effective, established media channels for more effective product market saturation is expensive in terms of lost sales and losing market share to competitors. Biolife QR Origins The source of the QR product startup was definitely by a Type C idea. When the creators of QR, Jim Patterson and John Alf Thompson, immediately realized the usefulness of their product, they began to market it as a “new and improved way of performing old functions” (Longnecker, Moore, Palich & Petty, 2008, p. 68). There were various antihemorrhagic agents on the market at the time, but few painless, immediate acting products like QR. Biolife and its QR product began in 1999 when Patterson and Thompson were experimenting with resin and salt in a quest to create a water purification solution.
