The problem with Patented Medicines

The main problem with patented medicines is that they are patented rather than organic in the first place. Legal drug makers realized a long time ago now that they could not patent organic plants or mixtures of things made from plants. So, they decided to make synthetic medicines which is what you are taking anytime you get a prescription from a doctor here in the U.S. So, basically most medicines in the U.S. are made out of inorganic compounds rather than organic compounds.

And the other problem is when you make synthetic medicines rather than organic ones is that you are likely going to have various side affects when you take those medicines even if you might need them.

So, my point of view is: "Wouldn't it be better to take the organic form of that medicine rather than to take a synthetic form that might give you almost any awful kind of side affect?"

However, then you have to find what the organic compound is that relates to what you should be taking actually is.  So, my thought is what would something like Coreg be in organic form?  However, not being an organic chemist or inorganic chemist I don't know how to do that.

So, that is where my line of reasoning is going at present.
