I can extract side effects

After Wei Kang upgraded the portable monitor, he quickly turned his attention to the abandoned prescription library.

He hasn't extracted new medicines for a long time, and he should have accumulated a lot of discarded medicines by now, just to extract all the valuable side effects.

Since he selects intensively every time, and then extracts multiple new medicines at once, the frequency is not that high.

Unlike other industries, the research and development of new drugs is very strict in listing review. Even if multiple drugs are extracted, it will take a long clinical trial process.

At most, take the fast track and shorten the time a little bit, from a few years to half a year or a year, which is already the fastest speed.

Some industries, such as electronic products and health care products, do not need to be strictly reviewed. From the beginning of the project to the listing, it can be done within one month.

Therefore, Weikang's sense of urgency for extracting new drugs is not so strong. Every time the new drugs on hand are almost on the market, he thinks about continuing to extract.

Fortunately, his points have always been sufficient. After a quick look, there are already tens of millions.

With so many points, he doesn't know what they are used for, and he can't use them all up, so let's save them and put them there, hoping to use them in the future.

Wei Kang opened the library of discarded prescriptions and carefully selected the side effects he was interested in.

The warehouse system has automatically marked all the side effects of the prescriptions, and he can screen them very conveniently.

This workload is actually quite large, because every discarded prescription has to be roughly reviewed, and then classified into categories after reading it. After all, the system is not that smart, and sometimes the classification is not so accurate.

Watching and watching, he soon discovered an interesting side effect.

"This is a prescription collected from Sakura Country. It was originally intended to develop a drug that could treat retinal atrophy. Unfortunately, the research and development failed, so it was suspended."

"This prescription has quite a lot of side effects, such as eye pain, dry eyes, dizziness, etc. Hey, the last side effect is that it can quickly decompose the denatured protein of the lens of the eyeball, thereby restoring and maintaining the transparency of the lens."

"Great, the denaturation of lens protein is the main cause of cataracts, and this side effect can be extracted to make a specific medicine for cataracts."

Wei Kang couldn't help but get excited. The first drug is a rare drug for eye diseases, which is so rare.

Generally speaking, there is no specific medicine for the more serious eye diseases at present, and surgical treatment can only be performed.

The eye is a very sensitive and fragile part. The operation is very complicated and dangerous, and the possibility of subsequent side effects is quite high. Generally, patients are very taboo about this kind of operation, and they are not willing to do it unless they have the risk of blindness.

Eye surgery has been developed for many years, and the technology is constantly improving. Artificial organs and retinal transplants are very mature.

But firstly, the operation cost is high, and secondly, the risk is high.

A little carelessness can cause infection and even blindness.

Therefore, many people still choose to wear glasses or take medicine for conservative treatment when they know that they can be treated by surgery.

If there is a special drug that can treat common eye diseases without surgery, it will undoubtedly be a good news for the majority of patients.

It will definitely be popular all over the world and bring a lot of wealth to Weikang.

Cataracts are mainly caused by lens opacity caused by denaturation of lens protein. Light is interfered by the cloudy lens and cannot be projected on the retina, resulting in blurred vision.

This disease is more common in people over the age of 40. There are many causes of the disease, the most common being age.

Like senile dementia, it is also a disease that increases year by year with increasing age. The incidence rate is 80% over the age of 60, and 95% of the people over the age of 70 have different degrees of cataract. According to estimates, the global patients Estimated to be in the billions.

It is also the world's first blinding eye disease and the chief culprit of blindness. Among the 40 million blind people in the world, half of them are cataract patients. There are about 1.25 million new cataract blind or visually disabled patients every year.

At present, there is no specific drug treatment for cataract, and the only treatment is surgery.

Although it is only a common minor operation, for patients, if the same effect can be achieved, it must be more convenient and safer to take medicine.

In short, this is a new drug with unlimited potential and a broad market, which is very valuable.

Wei Kang put it into the extraction group, marked it, and continued to read.

"It was an antibiotic that was used to treat respiratory infections, but it didn't work well, so it was scrapped."

"The side effects include drowsiness, hyperacidity, diarrhea, vomiting, and electrolyte imbalance. Why are these side effects all related to the gastrointestinal side? If you change the direction of treatment, you can make a stomach medicine."

"Wait, it can actually have a slight killing effect on Helicobacter pylori. This side effect is amazing."

"If it is extracted, it will become a specific antibiotic against Helicobacter pylori."

"This is the only bacterium that can survive in the stomach. It is the main cause of gastric cancer. It is extremely stubborn, difficult to cure, and easy to relapse. The current treatment method is triple or quadruple medication. The side effects are very serious, and patients often feel miserable. "

This drug is also very valuable and has great market potential. It will definitely sell well after it goes on the market.

He picked it out excitedly, put it aside, and then continued his efforts.

In this way, after a series of screening, he carefully selected several kinds of side effects, which can be said to be full of goods.

"A side effect of relieving cough and reducing phlegm, it can be made into antitussive medicine, which can just fill the gap in the medicine for sanqing respiratory system."

"A side effect of temporarily reversible loss of consciousness and pain in the body or part of the body, which can be made into an anesthetic."

"A drug that can inhibit the secretion of pancreatic juice and inhibit the side effects of trypsin can be extracted to treat acute and chronic pancreatitis."

"A side effect that inhibits bone resorption and could be used to treat metabolic bone lesions such as osteoporosis."

"A side effect that can turn off the heat stress-activated gene RIPK3 pathway, thereby effectively inhibiting programmed cell death. This side effect is amazing. It can be made into a heat stroke blocker, which can quickly block hyperthermia systemic cell death and multiple organ failure."

When Wei Kang saw this side effect, he was so excited that he wanted to jump up.

Heat stroke, this is a fatal disease that causes sudden death due to high temperature. If there is a quick-acting blocker that can be taken immediately after the onset of the disease, it will surely save many patients in the hot summer.

Those who can be exposed to the sun in the hot summer are the people at the bottom who have to risk their lives in order to survive. If they can save their lives as much as possible, it will be a real merit.

"Well, the priority of this drug should be adjusted to the highest. When it passes the review and goes on the market, it will happen to be next summer."

Wei Kang nodded secretly in his heart, and then looked at the last side effect.

Then, he suddenly froze.

"Uh, this side effect can increase the cell activity of sperm and eggs. This, this is a fertility drug that can treat infertility."

Generally speaking, if you cannot conceive, it is usually because of the problem of the reproductive cells of both husband and wife.

Either there is a problem with the man's sperm cells, or there is a problem with the woman's egg cells, or even both.

In modern society, late marriage and late childbearing are becoming more and more popular, and the older you are, the greater the chance of germ cell problems.

Therefore, when older couples want to have children, the quality of germ cells is a big problem. Usually, the activity of sperm cells is low, and it is very difficult to conceive.

Many people have been unable to conceive for a long time after various treatments, and finally have to do test-tube babies.

Test-tube babies cost a lot, cause a lot of pain to the woman, and the probability of success in the end is not high.

Some older couples want children but can't, which leads to a series of family conflicts, and some people even take risks and have to resort to illegal behavior.

In the past, when the technology was not popular, some people were deceived by the deception of asking for a child with a lot of money. Even in ancient times, there were legends of Guanyin who sent a child.

After all, in traditional Chinese culture, the idea of ​​inheriting the family is still very stubborn. Even if young people are open-minded, they can't stand the strong demands of their parents.

At present, the number of such patients is increasing, and the scale of reproductive specialists and infertility specialists in hospitals is expanding every year.

If a pregnancy-assisted drug is launched, it will not only make money, but also promote the happiness of the patient's family, and even conform to the current basic national policy of multi-birth.

It's just public and private, and it's all about winning.

Thinking about it, he couldn't help but shine his eyes.

Immediately, I couldn't wait to extract it.

"System, extract side effects, and make new medicines."

Soon, 8 brand new prescriptions appeared in front of him.

Wei Kang looked at them one by one, nodded and put them away immediately.

Next, it is time to do preclinical research.

Preclinical research is mainly animal experiments, based on which the pharmacokinetics, pharmacokinetics, and toxicology studies are carried out.

The most important thing is to determine whether the drug has side effects, which is the key to the success or failure of a drug.

If there are any serious side effects, the drug will be invalid.

Of course, the new medicine extracted by the system must have no toxic and side effects, so you can rest assured in this step.

Therefore, it is mainly pharmacological research to determine the interaction between drug molecules and the body, including drug absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion, etc., in order to determine the dosage.

When there is no problem with the animal experiments, you can apply for clinical trials to act on humans.

8 drugs, the workload must be heavy.

Wei Kang thought of the scene when he did the animal experiments himself, and he couldn't help but secretly rejoice. Fortunately, now that his family has a big business and a lot of employees, he can distribute the work, and he only needs to wait for the results.

Soon, the assistant Anmei distributed 8 new drugs to the employees of the R\u0026D department.

They will be responsible for the next work, patent application, animal experiments, and follow-up clinical trial cooperation with CRO.

Now Sanqing's new drug research and development projects are not rare, but if it is not produced systematically, it will indeed take a little longer.

Even with the help of the AI ​​pharmaceutical system, the screening efficiency of compounds has been greatly improved, but it is often measured in years.

It's not like he is now, just squeeze the wool of the system, and there are 8 new medicines in one fell swoop.

There's even an updated version of the portable universal monitor.

These results are enough for the company to develop for a period of time.

And Wei Kang was a little tired after so long selection.

Glancing at the clock on the wall in the office, it was already six in the afternoon, which happened to be the end of get off work time.

He yawned, stretched again, got up and walked home.

"It's time to go home, there are people waiting at home."
