We Need Drugs-- Better Drugs Now.
A question arises in the
readers mind that what are drugs. The simplest answer to this question is
"It is a molecule consisting of Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen, Sulfur and few
other atoms combined in a specific way in a particular geometry to lock up a certain
pathological phenomenon." The subject here is we need drugs=, but
why.???
Apart from it, there is another tragedy going on in the society, specifically in the third world countries, i.e., Irrational approach to use the drugs. Prescribers are using broad spectrum antibiotics against even minor diseases, resulting in the formation of resistant strains of microbes, causing millions of deaths per annum. They do not even give a second thought to it while playing with the life of a patient. What if such a strain is produced, which can defeat all the known antibiotics, even the broadest spectrum ones ????
