Market protections surround American drugs in this country. A competitor must patent an improvement to compete. He can't copy a formula. But this patent protection doesn't extend abroad.

There's no international drug patent convention, as there is for copyrights. American drugs must meet U. S. Food and Drug standards of safety and stability. Drugs produced for sale abroad may, or may not, come up to U.
