Chinese medicine doctor Xu Yang

Whether it is traditional Chinese medicine or Western medicine, it needs to go through a series of strict standards from research and development to marketing. This process is not that easy.

But having said that, from this perspective, Chinese medicine is still relatively free. After all, Chinese medicine practitioners have the right to make their own prescriptions.

Those combinations of traditional Chinese medicine pieces can be prepared by Chinese medicine practitioners themselves, and there is no need to go through that set of procedures. But there are also pharmacopoeias from above, which is pretty much the same.

But in any case, patent medicines must be more stringent. Even after it is launched on the market, it is still necessary to continue to collect clinical feedback to see what the adverse reaction rate is and how effective it is.

Take a Niuguo company that makes pirated medicines as an example. In fact, drug dealers are aware of their situation, but they have always been in a state of acquiescence.

why?

The reason is very simple, that is, the developers need to collect feedback. This thing is not easy to use in their own territory. If there are some serious adverse consequences, they will lose money.

But here is their paradise for testing medicine.

…

How stable is Lianhua Qingwen? It has been on the market for more than ten years and has experienced countless large and small plagues, influenza, bird flu and other diseases. Its efficacy has been tested, and side effects and other issues have also been verified.

This medicine has been included in the "Guidelines for Diagnosis and Treatment of Influenza", "Diagnosis and Treatment Plan for Human Infection with Influenza A H1N1", "Traditional Chinese Medicine Prevention and Treatment Plan for Influenza B", "Diagnosis and Treatment Plan for Human Infection with H7N9 Avian Influenza", "Diagnosis and Treatment Plan for Influenza ( 2019 Edition)" and "Diagnosis and Treatment Plan for Pneumonia Infected by Novel Coronavirus (Trial Version 7)" and other diagnosis and treatment plans.

If you look at the resumes of veteran comrades, you will know how many battles they have experienced.

In other words, as long as it has the efficacy to treat new viruses, it can be promoted and used immediately, because other early work has been done countless times in more than ten years.

This is trust in the tried and tested old comrades.

Medically speaking, that's true. From a publicity point of view, it is the same. If the official starts to promote it, then their publicity will keep up. After all, the risk of rollover is very low.

So Zhang Ke is also making preparations here.

Soon, the fourth edition of the treatment plan was announced to the public, and the new plan of traditional Chinese medicine was also included.

Although four Chinese patent medicines were released, no one rushed to buy them this time. After all, the previous wave was already full of taunting skills.

Those who took it away have now switched to satirizing these serious Chinese medicines.

To be honest, TCM has been scolded ever since it entered the war.

It almost made everyone doubt their life, and they all thought that they had done something evil. Especially when they looked at the patient who was getting better and recovered, they couldn't figure it out.

Superior departments, publicity departments, and private self-media such as Zhang Ke have also been calmly waiting for new feedback from them.

Propaganda cannot be based on nonsense, so they are all waiting for the opportunity.

They are waiting for two things, one is the feedback after taking the medicine, and the other is the results of the laboratory.

On the front line, Academician Zhang, as the leader of the traditional Chinese medicine team, has also been very busy. In terms of clinical efficacy, he has teamed up with laboratories and multiple hospitals to conduct controlled trials.

We have been actively collecting feedback information.

Zhang Ke was not completely idle, but released some relevant information about Lianhua Qingwen and his past battle history.

The laboratory is also producing research results quickly.

Soon, the laboratory proved that Lianhua Qingwen had an inhibitory effect on the new virus. This is a natural antibiotic that penetrates bacterial biofilms and combats bacterial resistance.

Not only can it kill bacteria, but the presence of bacterial biofilm has no obvious impact on the bacteria-killing effect of Lianhua Qingwen Capsules, and can significantly inhibit the number of viable bacteria in the biofilm.

It has good anti-viral ability and can fight against a variety of viruses. It also has a very obvious inhibitory effect on this new virus, which is the result of laboratory in vitro experiments.

It's just that the masses still don't buy it. This was all caused by the double yolk egg before!

You say it's bad luck or not.

The workload of front-line medical staff has always been heavy, but fortunately it is constant. It’s just that Academician Zhang, who is in the coordinating position, is even more busy.

After collecting preliminary feedback on the efficacy, he went to Academician Zhong and Academician Li to study Lianhua Qingwen with them. Then I went to the leader and wanted to conduct a large-scale study.

Finally the leader agreed.

These three experts have teamed up with more than 20 hospitals including the State Key Laboratory of Respiratory Diseases of the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University, People's Hospital of Wuhan University, Wuhan Jinyintan Hospital, and Union Hospital Affiliated to Tongji Medical College of Huazhong University of Science and Technology to jointly conduct research in nine provinces. Clinical studies were conducted.

Lianhua Qingwen capsules were added to conventional treatment, and a total of 284 patients were enrolled and divided into Lianhua Qingwen group and conventional treatment group.

There were 142 cases in each group, and the main evaluation index was the disappearance rate of clinical symptoms such as fever, fatigue, and cough after 14 days of treatment.

…

The turning point in public opinion came after Academician Zhong took the initiative to talk about the effects of Lianhua Qingwen at the meeting, and the public began to believe in this medicine.

Academician Zhong said, "TCMs such as Lianhua Qingwen Capsules have been commonly used in the clinical practice of new pneumonia. The use of traditional Chinese medicines has been shown to reduce the entry of viruses into cells and reduce inflammatory symptoms. This can provide some evidence for the use of traditional Chinese medicines."

This time, there was no need to publicize it, and it spread all over the Internet.

Subsequently, Academician Zhong's team published the paper "Lianhua Qingwen has antiviral and anti-inflammatory effects on the new coronavirus" in the international journal "Pharmacological Research". It also further proves that under the standards of Western medicine, even Comrade Hua Lao is quite capable of fighting.

In a multi-province and city study, the results of the 284 **** patients who met the requirements are gradually coming out. The results of the study showed that the disappearance rate of main clinical symptoms and the duration of clinical symptoms in the treatment group were better than those in the control group.

Many pilot hospitals have even announced the results directly to the outside world, and then collected data to prepare for subsequent publication of papers in journals.

At this point, Comrade Lianhua's name finally became known.

During this epidemic, Chinese patent medicines took the lead in conducting large-sample clinical studies involving hospitals across the country.

At this time when the whole nation is suddenly forced to face this new disease, Chinese medicine is the first to conduct large-scale clinical research, and it is Chinese medicine that is at the forefront!

Because of this, public opinion finally had an opportunity to reverse.

Various traditional Chinese medicine channels, including official ones, universities, and self-media, are working hard to reverse the situation and clarify!

In the face of this large-scale battle, Chinese medicine practitioners who have made great efforts and made great contributions have finally been saved from being ripped off.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

And Academician Zhang, who was so busy that he was dizzy, also became sick from overwork and fell ill...
