A long timescale to bring the drug to the market (about 10 years). Not much profit. Summary: The ethical dilemma which the company must deal with is whether to invest a lot of money (about 100 million dollars) in a drug that potentially cures a disease - called river blindness or something like that. Whilst most people at risk (especially in Africa) are poor and can not afford expensive medicine to treat the disease. Therefore, this drug probably will not produce much profit for the company while they are not a charity. Moreover, the company will probably take a long time (10 years or so) to bring this drug to the market. Discussion topics for the management meeting. - Read about the problems relating to two other drugs and note the key points. a) The problem relating to heart disease is some patients have experienced severe breathing difficulties and other pleasant while most patients have received significant benefits so they Scanned with CamScannerdon't know they should make public the results of this test or withhold this information. b) The problem relating to dieting products is the result when they tested the drink on the animal, some animals became sick in the early trials, Because of claiming to be an ethical company so they have been reluctant to continue to test this product on animals or not.

If we want to improve the image of the company, we will have to look for different alternatives to not do animal experiments. Currently, there are many people interested in this topic, and that number will continue to increase. For long-term development, we should stop animal experiments.
