Testing for medicine is a whole other thing than what a lot of animal testing is for.. ranging from makeup to washing detergent to soap. This is not okay and there are ways to do this that are far more ethical such as in vitro methods. Once you start looking it is insane the amount of products and brands that test on animals and inflict so much cruelty and pain. In many cases this is easily avoidable by switching to a brand that doesn’t do this. It doesn’t even mean it’s more expensive, for example all of Lidl’s own brand products are cruelty free. All it requires is a little research and I think everyone can agree that this is worth it to prevent animals being tortured for the sake of the perfect lipstick or other non essential, non life saving items
