Adverse Drug Reactions

Hello! I found a couple of websites on the internet which tells you about adverse drug reactions...But what exactly ARE adverse drug reactions? Adverse drug reactions (we're talking about in the case of animal testing) is when drugs are tested on animals, and the results state that the drug is safe, but when used on humans produce bad, even disastrous, results.

From the websites above, one can see why we are against animal testing - it's totally unreliable! Yes, it may have helped scientific developments, but can we really afford the loss of so many lives on something we can change? So many accidents have happened in that past, so why don't we learn from it?
