What are the Challenges in Establishing Safe Dosage?
Despite the importance of determining safe dosage, several challenges persist:
Variability in Individual Responses: Due to genetic and environmental differences, individuals may respond differently to the same dosage. Complex Mixtures: In real-world scenarios, exposure often involves complex mixtures of chemicals, making it difficult to isolate the effects of a single substance. Long-term Effects: Some substances may have long-term effects that are not immediately evident, complicating the determination of safe levels.
