QUALITY OF
LIFE:A
NEW
STANDARD
FOR
ASSESSING
THETHERAPEUTIC
EFFECT
OF
DRUGS
Quality of Life principles specify
the
importance of
the
body's normal
and fully
functional
living. ln
the
new
era
ol
medical research and development,
new models
and schools of
thought
emerge.
As workers concentrating
on
the field of medicine, the social aspect
of such development should
nol
be
neglected.
All these
means
that
the
practice
of
medicine must recognise the
fact that the life
of
the
human being
has
not only biological
but
also
social
aspects
that just cannot
be ignored.
Medical workers
must
consider
not
only
the
physiological
and
metabolic
and
genetic
functions
of
the human body
but
also psychological functions as well as
social aspects. Only
in
this way
could
medical expertise help
to
solve
the
various problems related to health and
disease. lt
is
our belief that, to incorpo-
rate
Quality of
Life
criteria as one
of
the
required and designated end-points
for
the
assessment
of
new
medication
would be a greal step in
the
right
direction.
lt
would not only
help to
stimulate
the
appropriate kind
of
pharmacological development and to
raise
the standards of the
desired
clinical application of medicine.
ln
this
way,
the etfectiveness
of
drug treatment
would reach
new
dimensions and the
quality of life
of
patients would
also
improve considerably.
