Chapter 135 The People's Choice Is Honest

When Weikang first saw the FDA ban notice, he was in a daze.

What the hell?

I haven't applied to FDA yet?

Why did you ban my medicine first?

In order to prevent the abuse of painkillers, hasn't your FDA always encouraged the development and marketing of non-opioid painkillers?

What's going on with this discrepancy? It really is an old well-known double standard.

At first, he thought it was the foreign pharmaceutical giants who were obstructing it secretly. After all, the painkiller market is too big. It is normal and reasonable for this kind of sniping on competitors to happen.

But when he saw Du Cheng's drug rehabilitation clinical trial report, he suddenly realized it and came back to it.

"Hehe, then give up on the Eagle Country painkiller market, this is what you asked for."

There is a phenomenon of opioid painkiller abuse all over the world, because doctors prescribe painkillers for any disease for profit.

Other countries have stricter controls in this regard, so the abuse phenomenon is not serious, and there is a great demand for non-addictive painkillers.

Like the country of Gaul in Europa, which is the country with the lowest consumption of heavy opioids, it is not easy for patients to obtain these drugs. All opioids have long been banned from free sale and can only be used by prescription, and prescriptions for heavy opioids are only valid for 28 days.

Some Gauls have gone so far as to forge prescriptions or order them online to get the desired dose of painkillers. Studies have shown that more and more people are actually getting these opioids from veterinarians by harming small animals.

The drug regulatory agencies in European countries are obviously clear-headed, and it is only in the strange eagle country that there is a flood of addictive painkillers.

These countries have a strong demand for non-addictive painkillers, and the market is large enough. The sales of Sanqing’s new painkillers will certainly not be bad.

On the whole, in the global pharmaceutical product market, Eagle Country accounts for 40%, Europa 22%, Cherry Blossom Country 8%, Huaxia 20%, and other countries together account for the remaining 10%.

Although it is a pity to give up the largest market of Eagle Country, the market share of other markets in the world also has 50%.

Especially Europa, which belongs to the second largest pharmaceutical market in the world, has a delicate relationship with Eagle Country.

Facing the strong demand for painkillers, it is hard to say whether they will buy the FDA's account.

When Wei Kang thought about it this way, he didn't mind too much about the lost Eagle Country market.

Moreover, this time, in order to open up the markets of Europa and other countries as soon as possible, he decided not to sell at high prices overseas.

Although the price will still be more expensive than in China, but compared with anticancer drugs and the like, the price gap is already very small.

This is because Europa's medical system is completely different from that of Eagle Country.

Most developed countries in Europe have a free medical system, and in most cases, the government pays for it.

In this case, the drug price of pharmaceutical companies will be an important aspect to consider. If the price is too high, it is obviously difficult to enter the free medical system, and can only be sought after by wealthy patients in private hospitals.

Free medical care sounds beautiful, but in fact there are many unsatisfactory aspects. The biggest problem is that the polarization of medical resources is very serious.

Just like the Germanic countries, their free medical care is indeed free, but different levels of medical resources have been split, with public social insurance on one side and private commercial insurance on the other.

There is no doubt that the best doctors in various fields have actively gathered on the side of private commercial insurance.

Many patients have reported that when they call to make an appointment with a doctor's clinic with the best reputation in a certain field, the first answer they get is that the fastest appointment is already half a year or even a year later; but when the patient states that he is a patient with private insurance, he immediately Got a consultation appointment for a week later.

Not to mention those famous star doctors, their clinics even clearly stipulate that they only accept patients with private insurance.

In this case, patients go to private hospitals to get the best and newest drugs, while they go to public hospitals to get inferior and cheap drugs.

Therefore, for painkillers, Weikang plans to take the route of small profits but high sales, which can greatly recover the loss of the Eagle Country market, and at the same time seize the painkiller market as soon as possible.

And when Sanqing's pain relievers are used all over the world, patients in Eagle Country can only endure the opioid epidemic in a pitiful way. What will they think when they see this situation?

No matter what they think, it's none of Wei Kang's business anyway.

*****

In Germany, the Charlotte Medical School of Bailey University is the largest and best hospital in Europa, ranking among the top five in the world.

The hospital has a history of more than 300 years, and more than half of Germany's Nobel Prize winners in medicine come from here, which can be called the Taishan Beidou of the Germanic medical field.

Hussman, the chief of neurology, happily called a group of subordinate doctors to a meeting.

"Look at this issue of The Lancet, as well as the sub-journal of the scientific journal Translational Medicine, there is a clinical trial report on a non-addictive painkiller."

"The clinical report data is perfect, and that's the holy grail of pain relief that we want, and our patients suffer from all kinds of neuropathic pain, and they need it."

A doctor raised his hand: "We can contact the manufacturer of this drug for clinical cooperation, and they will definitely agree."

Hussman nodded: "Very well, this task is entrusted to you."

"Hopefully this drug has started to apply for the approval of the Europa Medicines Agency, so that we can see its miraculous effect in Germany soon."

A doctor hesitated: "I heard that the FDA seems to have banned this drug because of uncertainty about its addictive properties."

Hussman stared furiously, shaking his gray beard: "What does the FDA have to do with us? Everyone, you are all medical experts. You should read clinical data and don't follow others' opinions, especially don't listen to the opinions of bureaucrats. Okay, My children, hurry to work."

The same scene happened in well-known hospitals in Gaul, Bull and other countries.

There is no room for the FDA to dictate, so the experts in the medical circle are gearing up and eager to try, hoping to get this miraculous painkiller as soon as possible and try it on patients.

The overseas branch of Sanqing also quickly submitted an application for centralized drug review to the Europa Medicines Agency (EMA).

As long as it passes the centralized review of this scientific review committee, the painkiller can be launched in European countries.

The EMA was very interested in an alternative to opioid painkillers, and it was quickly passed.

Hussman got his wish and used this painkiller for clinical patients.

The miraculous effect made him couldn't help pulling his beard.

"Sure enough, the effect is the same as that written in the paper, it's shocking!"

He quickly gave the drug to his chronic neuropathic pain patients, and received rave reviews.

So, with mixed feelings of surprise and surprise, an eloquent paper flew to top medical journals such as The Lancet.

Soon a more heated discussion ensued.

Because this is the first clinical paper on painkillers by overseas medical experts.

Unlike the previous papers published by doctors from China, the authority is not as strong as Hussman.

When the global medical circle saw Hussman's paper, they had completely believed in the clinical effect of Sanqing Painkiller.

With the publication of clinical papers from other top Europa hospitals, the last lingering doubts about the new painkiller dissipated.

The doctors in Eagle Country are angry at this time, they are not stupid, they have seen the truth hidden by the FDA under the high-sounding excuses.

As a result, doctors made their own choices after communicating with professional doctor communities on the Internet.

Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic, Massachusetts General Hospital, and Johns Hopkins Hospital have all issued applications for clinical cooperation projects to China's top hospitals.

Haishi, Ruiji Hospital.

Jian Guohua looked at the email on the computer with a shocked expression, but also some disbelief.

"What? The director of the Mayo Clinic's oncology department wants to lead a team here for an exchange? They also hope to reach a long-term cooperation. If appropriate, they also want to introduce some patients to come to Ruiji Hospital for treatment?"

"Didn't we introduce patients to Mayo in the past? Some intractable diseases, patients want to go abroad for treatment, and I help them contact Mayo."

"Why is it the other way around this time? I really don't understand."

When the doctors from the Mayo Clinic arrived in Haishi, Jian Guohua was stunned when he saw the team of more than a dozen people.

"Am I dazzled? In addition to the director of the oncology department and the director of the neurology department, I can't recognize a few others, but they look familiar. I must have met them at a medical industry conference."

After the two sides exchanged pleasantries, they quickly entered the topic.

Only then did Jian Guohua know that it turned out that it was because Sanqing's painkillers were banned in Yingguo, so the major hospitals in Yingguo sent people to Huaxia for friendly exchanges and deepened clinical cooperation.

Most importantly, many patients with chronic diseases have long-term pain problems, and they are in great need of the painkiller Sanqing.

The two sides quickly reached a friendly cooperation, and Mayo Clinic returned with satisfaction.

Eagle Country, Cleveland Clinic.

Dr. Joseph looked at the patient in front of him, frowned, and remained silent.

The patient panicked: "Dear Joseph, old man, what's wrong with you? Has my condition worsened?"

Joseph shook his head: "I can no longer prescribe painkillers for you. If you continue to take them, you may become addicted. I have been an old friend for many years, and I can't watch you jump into the fire pit."

The patient suddenly became anxious: "Don't, just give me some painkillers. I need it for my headache, otherwise I can't work and live at all. You don't want to see me lose my job and become a homeless man."

With a struggling look on Joseph's face, he said after a while, "Old friend, do you have any vacation plans recently?"

A bright smile appeared on the patient's face: "Hey, how do you know that I took a month off recently? By the way, it must be because summer is here. Our vacation is about to start. Let me tell you, I plan to go to the beach to have a good time." Stay for a month and get a nice tan before coming back."

Joseph said in a deep voice: "Don't go to the beach, go to Huaxia, only there is the panacea that can save you from pain. I only hope that you haven't booked your flight ticket and hotel, otherwise you will suffer a lot."

The patient looked shocked and said, "My God, why can't I understand what you said?"

Joseph patiently explained: "Huaxia has a very good painkiller, which is not only effective, but also non-addictive. It can replace drugs such as morphine, and it is very suitable for your headache."

"Your nervous headache is already under treatment, and it will take some time to recover slowly. During this period, headaches are inevitable, but I can't prescribe those addictive painkillers for you, so you have to go to Huaxia to get new ones. painkiller."

"Ruiji Hospital in Haishi is our cooperative hospital. I will pass your case over there, where you can get good follow-up treatment. At the same time, your bill will be billed by us. Don't worry about the cost, the insurance company will pay for it. , everything is perfect, don't worry, you can still enjoy your vacation in China, I heard that it is a beautiful country, you will definitely make a worthwhile trip."

The patient looked confused: "Ah? Really? Do I have to go? Is there a sea in Haishi? It sounds like it should be a beautiful coastal city. Well, I agree."

After finishing everything quickly, Joseph was relieved to send the confused patient away.

He cursed bitterly in his heart and wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling exhausted physically and mentally.

"Damn FDA, just know to get us in trouble!"

"I wish the bureaucrats at the FDA could experience what it's like to have pain all over your body and not get painkillers."

The same scene happened at the Mayo Clinic, the Cleveland Clinic, and so on.

Soon, countless people from the Eagle Kingdom traveled across the ocean to Huaxia, taking painkillers while starting follow-up treatment.

The hospitals in Huaxia welcomed this kind of pie that fell from the sky, and everyone laughed from ear to ear.

In the past, domestic patients often felt that they were inferior to foreign doctors in their medical skills, and many imported medicines were not available, so they went to Yingguo for treatment, and even felt complacent, thinking it was a kind of life achievement.

Now, top overseas hospitals are even recommending patients to China for treatment.

Not only is the fee high, but the cases are detailed, and the follow-up treatment plan is also prepared early.

As long as overseas patients come over, lie down in the ward, and take painkillers for treatment.

These overseas patients are really willing to do anything for pain relief.

is it necessary? It's just a little pain, but it's not unbearable.

How squeamish it is to come so far just to take painkillers!

The doctors in Huaxia thought so in their hearts, and shook their heads, feeling that they had re-acquainted with the world.

At the same time, I also have a deeper understanding of the power of Sanqing's painkillers.

Just when patients in Eagle Country went abroad for treatment because of unbearable pain.

Davis, the head of the FDA, is in a crazy predicament.

He sprained his foot suddenly while running recently, but he was cured quickly after being sent to the hospital.

It's just that after I was discharged from the hospital, maybe because I was getting older, my knees started to hurt a little, and it got worse.

I saw a doctor and said it was knee osteoarthritis, which is a common chronic disease among middle-aged and elderly people. It can only be treated, but cannot be completely cured.

He was so angry that he immediately dropped the phone.

Later, some analgesics such as tramadol were prescribed, but they could only relieve pain for a few hours after taking it, and the pain was still there afterwards, and the knee joint was painful, itchy, and swollen, especially when walking, it was like walking The same as on the knife, excruciating pain.

I had to go to the doctor again, but what the doctor said after reading it almost didn't drive him crazy.

"There is nothing you can do about this pain, unless Sanqing's painkillers can be effective, unfortunately Eagle Country banned the sale."

"Have you had a vacation recently? I recommend you go to Huaxia Hospital for treatment, where you can buy Sanqing's painkillers."
