Clinical Trials
While clinical trials are very useful processes, the process of getting a drug approved by the FDA proves to be very arduous and challanging.


Also, a set of clinical trials are extremely time consuming, taking anywhere from 5 to 10 years. And with these trials comes millions of dollars of funding necessary to complete them.
Unfortuantely, most people have a fear of clinical trials, which is most inspired by ignorance of them. This sometimes limits the amount of subjects available and willing to participate in a clinical trial.
