What about if we establish a new type and call it shadow monopoly? Where you want to enter into the market but current monopoly companies don't give you right to do it? There were a lot of promising adhd medicines but weren't approved (it's easy to have a reason if you want) but instead addictive ones are given away like it's nothing. Cause when you are addicted to something, you crave it finally.

I know a lot about pharmacology and regulations/steps that FDA sets on new drugs to approve them on market. But what happens in reality is that FDA allows unsafe drugs on the market because of pressure from pharmaceutical companies. They approved dangerous tranquillizers and ssris that have very awful withdrawal. Doesn't it sound curious for you that all of these drugs have awful withdrawal but there isn't similar on market that doesn't have withdrawal? Do you know that at some point Soviet Union was working on similar drugs without side effects and some of them succeed?

Nothing to talk about these addictive drugs that are pharma business and a lot of prescriptions come on them (I advice you to check numbers), I also want to remind you that nearly a third of FDA-approved drugs had problems.
