Before a drug can be introduced into commerce, it must be:

  1. Patented

  2. Proven safe and effective for intended use

  3. Approved by all physicians

  4. Tested for a minimum of 10 years

The correct answer is: Proven safe and effective for intended use

When a drug is being developed, it goes through multiple stages of testing and approval before it can be sold to the public. The correct answer is B proven safe and effective for intended use. This means that the drug has undergone extensive testing and research to ensure that it not only works for its intended purpose, but also that it does not have any dangerous or harmful side effects. Options A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not fully encompass the process of bringing a drug to market. While a patent may be obtained for a new drug, it does not automatically mean that it is safe or effective. A drug does not need to be approved by all physicians, but rather by the appropriate regulatory agencies. And while drugs may go through testing for several years, a minimum of 10 years is not a requirement for a drug to be approved.
