Pointing the finger at regulation is misleading IMO. The regulations for bringing a drug to market are essentially quite simple: prove that it’s better than what currently exists.
What makes it difficult is the word “prove”
It turns out it’s obscenely hard to make a drug that’s good, and even harder to prove that it’s good.
