The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

And the average time to develop

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka

has been five to eight years.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

Well, we cut the R&D costs in half and we cut the time in half.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

And so we're going to see a lot more generic versions.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

We want to move more drugs to over the counter.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

Why do you need a prescription for naloxone?

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

Right?

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

Who are we protecting?

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

Yeah, who's going to abuse that, by the way?

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

Yeah, right.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

Who's going to abuse it?

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

If there's no abuse potential, if it's safe, if it's something that people can figure out with, they can have a discussion with their doctor and decide, hey, this may benefit you.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

And they're not going to abuse it for the creation of something else in society.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

and you don't need laboratory tests to monitor, say, your liver function when you start a drug, then what are we doing?

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

What are we doing?

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

So we want to get more drugs to over-the-counter.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

So that's where you can widen some of these lanes.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

Yeah, you can.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

And also, when a drug's over-the-counter, now it's got a price on the shelf of the pharmacy because you're picking it up.

The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka
229. Dr. Marty Makary: Vaccines, Chronic Disease, Drug Prices & Hormone Therapy

And now there's price competition.
