For the scientific drug research studies, animals have been used as experimental subjects because of their physiological similarity to human beings.
In order to establish the therapeutic efficiency and the safety of drugs, usage of laboratory animals for experimentation is unavoidable.
During the pre-clinical study, animals may be subjected to injury, pain and even they may die.

This act provides information on the provisions of pharmaceutical interest which are related to Animal Experimentations.
