I avoid a alopathic medical treatment as much as possible, though I have had a few prescription medications (mostly antibiotics and painkillers) in the past.
I would have died in childhood, most likely, without the use of penicillin so I tend to be appreciative of the wonders of modern medicine.
So I would not say that I have benefitted from the mice testing, but I have benefitted from the human testing. Perhaps the humans who took these drugs first considered it useful to have had the drug given to mice first, but I am not them.
This is akin to saying that you haven't benefitted from the invention of the wheel because you never had to use a wooden or stone wheel.
