Is the pharmaceutical industry a perpetrator of evil?

Every pharmaceutical company must show a profit, and it's big. If it does not show it, stock prices will go down, investors will go away and the company will be in danger of bankruptcy. The biggest possible profit for the pharmaceutical company is possible when she can patent something. You can not However, to patent natural substances occurring in nature, such as for example vines or minerals. Therefore, in order to maximize profits for investors, pharmaceutical companies are overcoming the production of substances that do not occur naturally in nature.

Therefore, modernly produced drugs are artificial substances. After developing such a substance, the company applies for patenting, and only then has the opportunity to generate the greatest possible profit.
He has about 10 years to do so.
Due to the patent rights, generally only this company, no other, can produce and sell the substance as a medicine. At the time, it is already working on a new substance or a greater number of substances that immediately patent. After the expiry of the patent, any pharmaceutical company can produce such a drug, but ... then its price and profits fall sharply.

However, to make any artificially made drug available for sale, the pharmaceutical company mui carry out a huge number of very complicated clinical trials that meet the very stringent conditions of the tests carried out.
After their completion, the test results are passed to a special institution that assesses the medicine in terms of its safety and effectiveness.

After accepting and approving these conditions, the pharmaceutical company receives a sale permit.

The purpose of these procedures is to protect patients from introducing drugs that may be dangerous for health.

And here we come to a lot of hypocrisy, because ... how is it that drugs for the treatment of cancer are introduced toxic to the heart or even promote the development of cancer?

At the same time, people are intimidated with the "fatal consequences of using vitamins and high doses (eg, vitamin D3) or minerals (eg, iodine)" which, as I will later show, have practically no side effects.

Please, comment, make a note and express your views on this subject.
Maybe some of you have dealt with such a deal?

Best wishes, friends
