                Discovering
            and developing safe and effective new medicines is a long, 
difficult,
            and expensive process. The research-based pharmaceutical industry
            expects to invest $24 billion in research and development in 1999.
            Once a new compound has been identified in the laboratory, it 
undergoes
            the drug development process before it can be marketed for public
            use.
The entire drug development process can be summarized in a series
            of steps or charts.
