The Right to Try
Who should decide if a new medicine is too risky to try? If it all goes wrong there could be terrible consequences but what if the person who wants to take them is in the last stages of life? Should they have the Right to Try?
Almost every day new medicines are being developed to help people live better and longer. These drugs go through stringent tests and it can take years for them to go from development to market. But if the option of a better or longer life is not possible should people be able to have access to these drugs before they get to market?
