I can extract side effects

The global generic drug giants look like they are facing an enemy and preparing for battle.

Wei Kang didn't know.

He just looked at those orphaned children with pity and wanted to provide some help within his ability.

It was completely unexpected that a decision made with good intentions would cause a shock in the industry.

At this moment, he is sitting in the laboratory, looking at the various prescriptions that the company has accumulated during this period of time.

In addition to the discarded prescriptions provided by major pharmaceutical companies at the beginning, there are also prescriptions developed by the employees of the R\u0026D department themselves.

The last time he checked the prescription database, there were not many new prescriptions. Now that half a year has passed, there should be some new discoveries.

After accumulating points for so long, it's time to harvest.

This time he is going to make a big one, and extract as many prescriptions as possible, even if the curative effect is similar to that of many similar products on the market. This will greatly fill Sanqing's product line, and even if it cannot sweep the market in a short time, it will still It can gradually erode the market of other pharmaceutical companies and grab one piece of cake after another.

If you just want to be a small and sophisticated pharmaceutical company, then one or two ace products are often enough. Many small pharmaceutical companies or laboratories have strong strength, focus on a specific field, and continue to cultivate, thus becoming the leading pharmaceutical company in the industry. King of the field.

However, to become a global pharmaceutical giant, competitive products are important, and a rich and diverse product line is even more important.

Large pharmaceutical companies are not overly dependent on a particular operating segment, and each segment does not have exclusive sales revenue from only one drug.

Diversified drugs can generate a wide moat, which can enable companies to resist the competitive threats brought by new drugs and the side effects of existing drugs, so as to maintain high returns on drugs and at the same time seize the market faster.

Pharmaceutical giants like Johnson \u0026 Johnson maintain a leadership position in prescription and over-the-counter drugs, as well as medical devices. Aside from low margins in individual segments, the company maintains strong pricing power across a wide range of products and has generated gross margins close to 70% over the past 5 years, a strong testament to its strong competitive position.

As a top oligarch, Pfizer also has a very rich product line. It has launched heavy products in many fields such as antibiotics, men's health, cardiovascular, rheumatism, painkillers, tumors, vaccines, and diabetes drugs. It was launched globally last year. 27 new varieties.

As a pharmaceutical giant, Bayer even produces cockroach medicine, pet medicine, and pesticide. This product line is no longer a moat, but like the sea, endless and unfathomable.

Sanqing's goal is to become the world's number one pharmaceutical giant, rather than just content to dominate the existing field.

Therefore, it is necessary to deepen and strengthen its core areas and product lines to form a broad moat.

Ranking of the ten categories with the highest sales in the global prescription drug market: antineoplastic drugs, diabetes drugs, pain relievers, antihypertensive drugs, immune system drugs, respiratory system drugs, antibacterial drugs, mental illness drugs, dermatology drugs, and anticoagulant drugs.

The annual sales of each category of drugs are as high as tens of billions of dollars, which is a hot battlefield for major giants. If there is no blockbuster drug layout in these fields, it is difficult to become the top ten pharmaceutical companies in the world.

Cell therapy and gene therapy drugs in biopharmaceuticals are also the trend of future development and are currently hot spots.

Sanqing has laid out chemical pharmaceuticals, biopharmaceuticals, and generic drugs in three categories.

In the field of antineoplastic drugs and mental diseases (Alzheimer's disease), Sanqing has also taken a strong leading position, but there are too many types of drugs, which is far from enough.

The next step is to develop first-line new drugs in various fields and launch blockbuster products, so as to seize the existing market.

Three to five years later, Sanqing's special drug will become the mainstream drug in the market, and no pharmaceutical company can compete with it.

At that time, the general public will have the choice of Sanqing medicines when they are sick, and they can eat high-quality and cheap domestic medicines.

Thinking about the company's strategic development plan, Wei Kang began to carefully check the prescription library.

"Huh?"

As soon as he saw the first page, he discovered a side effect that made his eyes shine.

"A drug that promotes bone hematopoiesis has no obvious curative effect and many side effects. Long-term use can cause acne, irregular menstruation, vomiting, acid regurgitation, and body aches. There is an unknown ingredient that can repair skin keratinocytes and improve skin hydration."

"This side effect is not bad. This unknown ingredient can be extracted and used to moisturize the skin."

"Sheng Changya said that the market for moisturizing cosmetics is the largest, and she urged me to develop skin care products with moisturizing functions a while ago."

"This ingredient should be able to be made into a moisturizer, which is widely used. Not only can it be made into skin care products, but it can also be added to other cosmetics, such as foundation, lipstick, and even other lubricating and moisturizing products."

"Even in terms of medical applications, it will have a very good auxiliary effect on dermatological diseases, such as peeling, anti-allergy, etc. It is an excellent auxiliary agent."

"Great, that's it!"

Wei Kang was elated, and this was simply a good start.

Immediately open the system panel, without looking at anything else, and start extracting directly.

"System, extract this unknown ingredient and make a new prescription."

Under the system panel, light slowly glowed, and a new prescription appeared.

The prescription is very magical. On the basis of the original prescription, the ratio of raw materials has been changed, and some additional ingredients have been added to produce a new organic chemical composition.

A super moisturizing ingredient, which can mainly repair skin keratinocytes, and can also absorb external water for moisturizing, thereby increasing the water content of the skin, increasing skin elasticity, and at the same time promoting the secretion of skin natural moisturizing factors and lipid components.

He suddenly thought of the famous miraculous ingredients in the cosmetics industry, such as hyaluronic acid, collagen, stem cells, and other gimmicks, and he couldn't help but have an idea.

"The new ingredient needs a famous name so that it can be marketed well. Why don't we just call it a super moisturizing factor."

The skin's moisturizing function is mainly performed by the stratum corneum, the outermost layer of the skin.

Keratin is formed by the aging and outward differentiation of the innermost basal cells of the skin. During the process of keratinization, some oil components and natural moisturizing factors are gradually secreted from the keratinocytes, which are filled between the cells of the stratum corneum.

The composition of lipids can prevent water loss, and the natural moisturizing factor can hold water between the stratum corneum. Coupled with the physical barrier of the keratinocytes themselves, they become the outermost barrier of the human body, just like bricks and cement.

In addition to external skin care products, the most important source of moisturizing the skin is keratinocyte secretions. Even skin care products are made from ingredients that imitate keratinocyte secretions.

There are many moisturizing moisturizers in skin care products that are similar to natural moisturizing factors, such as glycerin, hyaluronic acid, panthenol and so on.

An excellent moisturizing product must contain lipid components and moisturizing factors at the same time in order to achieve the effect of moisturizing.

Now the most famous moisturizer on the market is hyaluronic acid. Its most powerful thing is its water retention capacity. The experimental results show that 1 gram of hyaluronic acid can retain nearly 6 liters of water.

However, the concentration of hyaluronic acid in skin care products should not exceed 1%. If the concentration is too high, the texture will be thick and the feeling of use will not be good. Generally, it is used together with other moisturizing ingredients. And it is easy to breed bacteria, so preservatives must be added, which is very unfriendly to sensitive skin, and people with poor skin tolerance are prone to allergies.

And this super moisturizing factor does not have these restrictions, and the ingredients are very safe and mild. Not only can it be used in combination with other moisturizers, but it also feels good when used alone.

Especially its main function is to promote keratinocytes to secrete natural moisturizing factors and lipid components, so as to keep the skin's water and oil balance.

For example, after laser surgery, you need to use moisturizers to accelerate the re-epithelialization of the wound, reduce erythema, edema and pain, promote healing, play a protective role, and promote the function of skin repair.

Adding moisturizers to other dermatological ointments can also greatly promote the repair of damaged skin and improve adverse effects such as peeling after use.

In short, the application range is very wide, and it is expected to become a basic cosmetic raw material.

Wei Kang quickly recorded the prescription, and then continued to look down.

The first drug extracted was very effective and widely used.

This made him feel very happy, and at the same time he was looking forward to the next harvest.

He had to search through the prescription library, extracting as much as he could.

See how much you can gain?
