Abstract

The main problems of the system governing the development and dissemination of innovative medicines are known. Despite relatively low manufacturing costs, patented drugsare unduly expensive, and neglected diseases attract little pharmaceutical research. Bothproblems are compounded by patients who, discouraged by high prices, lack of access tocompetent medical services and low quality medicines, do not complete their treatment
