3D printing technology enables doctors and pharmaceutical companies to manufacture drugs tailored to the specific needs of individual patients--taking into account their age, weight, race, and kidney and liver functions to increase the effectiveness while reducing side-effects. Yet what are the potential effects of 3D printed drugs on the medical industry?
