Chapter 523 - Drug Test (New Book Release, Asking for Support)
(The new book "Back to the Ming Dynasty to Open a Factory" was released, asking for support)
After arriving at the hospital by taxi from the airport, Zhu Mingzhong suddenly thought of another question.
What if Zhao Guowei's family doesn't agree to test the medicine himself?
And what is the appropriate dosage of the drug?
If the dose is too much, will it cause any harm?
These are unknowns.
Standing in the elevator, thinking about these questions, the elevator opened, and a young girl dressed in a very fashionable dress walked in, she was wearing a white coat, and even had curly hair, after seeing Zhu Mingzhong standing inside, she immediately smiled and nodded.
"Hello, are you coming to see a patient?"
Zhu Mingzhong, who didn't know how many years had not had this kind of encounter, even subconsciously looked around him and replied after confirming that it was only him.
"Well, yes, there's a friend who is hospitalized."
The young girl said with a smile.
"Oh, yes, what is it?"
"Streptococcal infection, high fever."
"That's really not a light disease, and berberine is useless? If it doesn't work, I'm afraid I have to amputate my leg. ”
In fact, compared with the Western scientists who have taken a crooked path in another time and space to focus on chemical synthesis, the efforts of the scientists of the Ming Dynasty are even more fruitful, they have extracted a lot of drugs with good effects from traditional Chinese medicine, berberine is an antibacterial drug, it has a certain effect on streptococcus, and even has a certain effect on tuberculosis, but the effect is still a little worse.
"There are many types of streptococcus, and it may be a powerful streptococcus."
Zhu Mingzhong's answer made Sun Mengqi look at him seriously.
"You're also studying medicine? My name is Sun Mengqi, I don't know what your name is. ”
Hearing the other party introduce himself and ask for his name, Shi Yiwen smiled in his heart, he understood that the girl in front of him was talking to him.
Being accosted by a strange young and beautiful girl for the first time in so many years made Zhu Mingzhong feel happy in his heart, but he kept a smile on his face.
"My name is Zhu Ming...... And, if you don't study medicine, you should be a writer. ”
Even now, Zhu Mingzhong still doesn't quite adapt to the new name.
"Writers?"
Even if Zhu Mingzhong's words had "should" in them, Sun Mengqi's eyes still lit up.
"You can write, and I sometimes write something."
"Really?"
Zhu Mingzhong said with a smile.
Seeing Zhu Mingzhong's smiling face, Sun Mengqi thought that he was interesting to him, and a touch of pride flashed in his eyes.
"Well, but it's only published in the school newspaper, is it right what you wrote?"
"Several articles have been published in the Journal."
"Oh, you're amazing."
Sun Mengqi said again.
"It's amazing that you can publish in the Journal at such a young age! Are you going to be a patient? It's the 11th floor, do you want me to take a look at it for you? ”
Zhu Mingzhong, who was smiling, glanced at the girl's youthful and beautiful face again, and smiled.
"It's embarrassing, it's just too much trouble for you."
There's a doctor around, will she agree to test the drug?
She took a look in the room and ...... It's gone, then.
The condition is still the same, even "acquaintances" can only sigh at the illness.
"Let Mr. Zhu bother."
Mrs. Zhao is a typical traditional woman, dressed in traditional Hanfu, and it is also a blessing when she returns the salute, although she bows her head slightly when she speaks, and there are few words, but she can still make people feel the gratitude in her words.
"That's what I'm supposed to do, just a friend...... Well. ”
After hesitating for a moment, Zhu Mingzhong still decided to tell a lie.
"That's right, there is a laboratory where a new drug has just been tested, and I took the medicine and wanted Brother Weizhi to try it, so I need a doctor to come and see if it can be used."
For Mrs. Zhao, it was natural to distinguish the falsehood in Zhu Mingzhong's words, and she just asked in some surprise.
"A new drug in the trial? Does it work? ”
"You'll have to try it to find out."
Then everything went extremely smoothly, especially when Zhu Mingzhong was under the banner of a doctor, Sun Mengqi, who was originally just a glance by the way, unexpectedly became the "key", because there was a doctor "involved", Mrs. Zhao naturally did not suspect it, and when Zhu Mingzhong took out the tablets made of sulfonamides, Mrs. Zhao also helped her husband up without suspicion and served him to drink the medicine.
Even the patients in the adjacent beds looked at them with envy when they saw this scene, after all, there are not many ways to cure diseases now, so sometimes people always hope for "secret recipes". Not to mention this era, even in the 21st century in another time and space, the so-called "secret recipe" is still popular, and I don't know how many people have been deceived.
If it weren't for the patient's improvement, maybe he would have asked what kind of medicine it was and where he bought it.
After Zhao Guowei took the medicine, Zhu Mingzhong waited on the side.
While he was waiting, Mrs. Zhao expressed her gratitude several times, and even said in a desperate tone in the end.
"Mr. Zhu, thank you very much, Guowei's illness has bothered you, in fact, the doctor has already informed him yesterday, and his condition has deteriorated again...... I'm afraid that my life will not be saved. ”
Her eyes drooped, and two wisps of tears slid across Mrs. Zhao's face.
"Hey, I thought he would get this disease in the past, it was really fate."
While they were chatting, the nurse on ward rounds was a little surprised when she took Zhao Guowei's temperature.
"Huh? The temperature has come down. ”
Then he said to Mrs. Zhao.
"The patient's family, this should be a good thing, the absence of fever indicates that the situation is improving."
The situation is indeed improving, the medicine used in the morning, by the afternoon, Zhao Guowei, who was still in a high fever, had subsided his fever and regained his senses, and he was obviously extremely surprised when he saw Zhu Mingzhong.
"Mr. Zhu, why are you here?"
"Guowei, it was the medicine that Mr. Zhu brought that saved you."
Mrs. Zhao's expression looked a little excited, and Zhu Mingzhong just smiled slightly, caring about Zhao Guowei, and asked him how he felt.
The effect of sulfonamides is remarkable.
By the next day, the doctor on the ward round was also stunned, Zhao Guowei, who was originally dying, suddenly recovered, in their opinion, simple is a miracle, especially when they noticed that the originally swollen shoulder had been swollen, and asked him in surprise if he had used any other drugs.
All of this seems so absurd, and the doctor's question is undoubtedly to highlight the fact that too many patients use "secret recipes" in desperation, and when some miracle occasionally happens, the doctor is surprised and more curious.
When he knew that it was the "new medicine" brought by Zhu Mingzhong, Lin and the attending doctor immediately asked with some excitement.
"I heard Mrs. Zhao say, you used a new drug made in the laboratory for Mr. Zhao? Can you tell which lab it is? Are there any other medications? There are several similar patients in our hospital, I wonder if we can try it! ”
Lin He's inquiry, in Zhu Mingzhong's opinion, was extremely absurd, it seemed that for him, the so-called test drug was almost equivalent to testing on mice, and there was no need for any approval at all. As for the pharmacists in pharmacies, there are countless "secret recipes" made by themselves, and many famous pharmacies themselves started with "secret recipes" and "secret medicines".
In fact...... Probably this is really the case, in this era when medical technology has just started, Daming's drug research is extremely "wild", once all drugs prove to be effective, they will be directly used in the human body, as for what dose is safe, whether there are side effects on the human body, no one cares at all.
In fact, the same was true of the early twentieth century in another time and space. Doctors only ask about the efficacy, not anything else, and even they themselves will study some drugs and then test them directly on patients.
For such a barbaric and wild operation, Zhu Mingzhong was cautious, but he did not object, because he carried a bottle of medicine with hundreds of tablets, so he agreed to try it for other patients.
Of course, the drug test also needs to be approved by those people, and their reaction also interprets the phrase "rushing to the doctor" when they are sick, and they choose to agree without even thinking about it.
What is the content of sulfonamide pills?
What is the safe dosage?
All of this...... No, and Zhu Mingzhong also watched Lin He's "wild" operation dumbfounded.
"Strep infection, try two tablets first."
"Pneumonia...... Let's have three pieces! ”
……
The operation is barbaric, but after giving them the medicine, Lin He still made a detailed record, and when recording, Zhu Mingzhong saw the rigor that a well-known hospital attending doctor should have, and after making a detailed record, Lin He smiled at Zhu Mingzhong, and then explained.
"I noticed just now that Mr. Zhu seemed a little surprised."
Obviously, Lin He himself also saw Zhu Mingzhong's strange appearance, so he took the initiative to explain.
"In fact, drug trials are like this, throughout the ages, the so-called famous doctors, will modify the prescription, they are based on experience, science, but it is also in the continuous attempt, to come up with a prescription to save people, now, the use of modern means to extract drugs, the same test,"
Regarding Zhu He's explanation, Zhu Mingzhong just smiled, the operation was very barbaric, and he was more willing to attribute all this to the times.
"Oh, by the way, what herb is Mr. Zhu's medicine extracted from?"
Like everyone else, Lin He also took it for granted that this medicine was extracted from herbs, after all, years of experience had taught them that medicines could only be extracted from herbs.
"It's synthetic."
Zhu Mingzhong said directly, anyway, it is no longer in the patent period.
"Drugs synthesized by chemical reactions."
"What? Synthetic chemical reactions? ”
Lin He looked at Zhu Mingzhong in surprise and stood up suddenly.
"Why didn't you say earlier that chemicals are harmful to the human body......"
