The book examines the implications of extending intellectual patent protection for reference medicines in Brazil, highlighting its role as a safeguard against administrative inefficiency. It critiques how this extension exacerbates health inequities by limiting access to high-cost medicines, imposing a financial burden on public resources, and conflicting with constitutional principles. The author discusses current national measures and international cooperation efforts aimed at addressing these challenges while proposing additional strategies to enhance access to healthcare and uphold the right to health.
