Statement: Should all the drugs patented and manufactured in Western countries be first tried out on sample basis before giving licence for sale to general public in India?
Arguments:
- Yes. Many such drugs require different doses and duration for Indian population and hence it is necessary.
- No. This is just not feasible and hence cannot be implemented.
Answer: Option
