Assignment task:
The issue of importing drugs into the United States is the safety and quality of the prescribed drugs. Prescriptions must undergo testing parameters by either the manufacturer or the importer, ensuring the quality and authenticity of the product for degradation and compliance with guidelines and standards. In addition, any prescribed drugs imported to the United States must be relabeled to include the instruction, medication guidelines, and patient packaging. These criteria are an additional cost that can be geared towards lowering the prescribed drugs in the United States. Stakeholders in the private healthcare industry, Federal and State policymakers must further invest in research to innovate new technology to lower drug prices. The safety of the citizens should always be forefront when dealing with prescribed drugs due to the uncertainty of the quality in other countries.
