Chiral drugs consist of only one enantiomer the benefits of using a pure enantiomer rather than a mixture include?

Often none - the wrong enantiomer would just be voided or metabolised. But if a manufacturing route can be found to produce only one, it would tend to be a lot cheaper. Problems would arise if the wrong enantiomer is biologically active and interferes with the reaction/action of the correct one - such as binding to the same particular site.
