@article{MRA, author = {Jawad Alzeer}, title = { Lifestylopathy and Ethical Pharmaceuticals: A Halalopathy Perspective}, journal = {Medical Research Archives}, volume = {13}, number = {3}, year = {2025}, keywords = {}, abstract = {Pharmaceutical ethics is a critical pillar of healthcare, ensuring that medicines are developed, tested, and distributed with integrity, safety, and adherence to ethical principles. In response to the growing demand for ethically conscious healthcare solutions, Lifestylopathy emerges as a holistic framework that integrates ethical, natural, and sustainable approaches to medicine, emphasizing the alignment of pharmaceuticals with cultural, religious, and personal health values. Within this paradigm, Halalopathy addresses the specific ethical and religious concerns of the Muslim community, ensuring that pharmaceuticals comply with Halal (lawful ingredients) and Tayyib (clean and pure process) standards by excluding non-Halal ingredients, preventing cross-contamination, and enforcing transparency in sourcing and production. However, disintegrated Halal certification systems, ingredient verification complexities, and limited awareness among healthcare professionals and consumers present significant barriers to its widespread adoption. Despite these challenges, the growing demand for Halal, Kosher, Vegan, and other ethical pharmaceuticals presents vast opportunities for biotechnological advancements, the development of plant-based excipients, synthetic alternatives, and the establishment of ethical supply chain models. By integrating pharmaceutical ethics with the principles of Lifestylopathy, the industry can meet the needs of an increasingly diverse and ethically conscious consumer base, while maintaining scientific rigor, regulatory compliance, and market competitiveness.}, issn = {2375-1924}, doi = {10.18103/mra.v13i3.6384}, url = {https://esmed.org/MRA/mra/article/view/6384} }
