I probably would advise against it. Sometimes death happens. The chances of even extending life after a terminal diagnosis with an experimental medicine is almost minuscule. False hope isn’t hope

Authoritarians love this shite.
You just need to die because the state said so.

You’re not serious if you’re asking for a link. My friend lobbied against Missouri’s right to try. Every pharma company had a lobbyist there in support of the bill
What if big pharma is willing to give trials of experimental drugs for free because they badly need the data?
Do you know what the market is going to dictate?

terminally ill patients to access experimental drugs not yet approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
Backdoor into cannibus research and deregulation as soon as medical uses are proven.
I'm about to cream my jeans.

What's to stop any random person from selling sugar pills for 5 grand a pop as a possible cure to cancer? Saying it just hasn't been proven yet to bilk vulnerable families out of their money?
But this is what the FDA's compassionate use waivers are for. You can go through the process through the FDA to try drugs which haven't yet been approved, but the drug company has to pay for their drug (basically it's their ability to do a mini "trial" to learn more about it, but prevents abuse from pharmaceutical companies

Simple consultation with doctors should alleviate this

Right to try laws may open a door to crackpots and shysters looking to take advantage of terminally ill people, a huge problem in the stem cell field even before the passage of right to try laws. Right to try laws offer no financial help to patients seeking access to investigational medical products, although one state, Utah, did establish a private foundation to address this concern. Under right to try laws, a company may or may not decide to charge for its investigational product, and health insurers may or may not decide to reimburse such costs. However, under FDA regulations, a sponsor can charge only for its costs, and there are few examples of a sponsor charging anything at all for a medicine provided under expanded access/compassionate use. The Texas right to try law requires that pre-approval drugs be provided for free.

Testing, studies, peer reviewed research, trials, etc....

I understand it just fine and, judging by your callousness, you're likely involved in medicine.
