Saibei Medical Research and Development Center. Director's Office!
Looking at the half-filled bottle of blue pills handed over by Li Linzhang, a trace of excitement flashed across Zhou Yang's face.
Hey guys, finally got it done!
At that moment, he took the glass bottle filled with medicine, unscrewed the cap, poured out one pill, and looked at it carefully.
Judging from the color and smell, it was indeed the Sildenafil he knew.
But Zhou Yang was not sure about the effect. After all, he had never taken this kind of medicine before.
After a while, Zhou Yang came back to his senses, and then asked Li Linzhang: "Professor Li, how many medicines are there?"
"There are 376 pills in total. It took a lot of effort for me to get them out!"
"How effective is this medicine?" Zhou Yang asked again.
Li Linzhang glared at him and said, "I haven't tried it, how about you take it back and try it?"
To be honest, Li Linzhang was very dissatisfied with this research project.
He was originally conducting a clinical trial on the lipid-lowering drug atorvastatin in Yangcheng, and the results were about to be released, but he received an order from here to come back quickly.
As soon as he returned to the laboratory, Zhou Yang called him over and gave him a plan to study this little blue pill.
When Li Linzhang learned that Zhou Yang asked him to study the kind of medicine, his heart collapsed, he was angry and he firmly disagreed.
As a serious drug researcher, how could he waste his time studying such "irregular" drugs?
But unable to withstand Zhou Yang's insistence, Li Linzhang had no choice but to accept the task.
Zhou Yang heard the "grievance" in Li Linzhang's heart, and immediately smiled and said: "Looking at you, you are armed with a gun and a stick, aren't you just asked to study this kind of medicine, isn't it?"
"As for, if people know that I actually worked with you to create this drug, this may be the biggest stain in my career!" Li Linzhang said depressedly.
"Professor Li, you are overthinking this. This is good news for men. I don't know how many men will have to thank you in the future..."
"Quickly pull them down. Let them thank you, Director Zhou. Don't forget the agreement between us!" Li Linzhang reminded.
In order not to let this research become a stain on his career, Li Linzhang made two requirements at the beginning of his research on the little blue pill.
The first requirement is that he does not need any assistants when researching this medicine. If there is any problem, Zhou Yang needs to personally help him.
The second requirement is that after the drug is successfully researched, it cannot be said that he invented it.
"Professor Li, don't think about it anymore, this is a good opportunity to leave your name in history!" Zhou Yang said with a smile.
"Don't think about it... don't think about it. This medicine has nothing to do with me!" Li Linzhang said firmly.
"Okay... I'll do as you say. I won't tell anyone that you researched this medicine!" Zhou Yang said.
"That's good. I still have something to do over there, so I won't tell you!"
After saying that, Li Linzhang turned and left Zhou Yang's office.
After watching Li Linzhang leave, Zhou Yang looked at the small pills on the table and felt worried.
Once any drug is developed, its effect must be verified, that is, clinical trials.
Even if Zhou Yang is actually producing generic drugs now, he cannot do without this step. It is just a matter of time.
For example, when he made a copy of fluoxetine, Lin Wanwan was the subject for symptomatic observation.
Another example is Atorvastatin, which was prepared for Guo Yamin. With him around, the effect is clear at a glance.
But this little blue pill is different. It treats no ordinary disease. This disease cannot be described in words, and the effect of the medicine cannot be demonstrated on the spot.
More importantly, although the little blue pills in front of him were made by him and Li Linzhang according to the formula in memory, it was the first time for Zhou Yang to make this kind of medicine whether in his previous life or in this life.
Therefore, the effect remains to be verified.
You must know that the little blue pill in history originated from an "accident." The original research on this drug was not to make men more erect, but to find new ways to treat cardiovascular diseases including angina.
At that time, nitrates were effective drugs for the short-term treatment of angina pectoris attacks, but their clinical value for long-term use was limited because of their drug resistance.
Through the pharmacological mechanism of nitroglycerin in relieving angina pectoris, medical scientists have discovered that phosphodiesterase type 5 can dilate blood vessels, and vasodilation can increase blood flow, thereby relieving angina pectoris.
Subsequently, Pfizer began to explore based on this.
Through a series of chemical synthesis and improvements, Pfizer selected UK-82480 as a drug among many compounds after comprehensive evaluation of various activities, which was later named sildenafil.
Unfortunately, sildenafil failed in clinical studies as a drug for treating cardiovascular disease.
But the story does not end there. During the clinical research process, one of the side effects of sildenafil attracted the attention of scientific researchers.
They found that male patients who took sildenafil had a "reaction" when they saw a beautiful nurse.
Some male volunteers who took relatively high oral doses found that after taking sildenafil, their penises had more frequent erections and the erections lasted longer, which means that this drug can make them more aggressive in bed.
So much so that after the trial ended, many volunteers were unwilling to hand over the drugs.
In this way, a drug that can treat male erectile dysfunction was born by chance.
Pfizer, after countless volunteers came to test the drug, finally discovered the miraculous properties of this drug, and its effects have been verified countless times.
But he doesn’t have anything he wants right now, so how should he test this?
If you say you don’t want to try it, that’s okay. After all, this medicine will eventually be put on the market and used by countless people.
If it doesn't work, isn't that a sign of failure?
And although Zhou Yang wanted to use this medicine to harvest the whole world, he didn't want to harm anyone.
After thinking about it again and again, he decided to take the medicine back first and think of a solution later.
But no matter what, the little blue pill was finally released, which is extremely important to Zhou Yang himself, the entire Scythe Project, and even men around the world.
Once the efficacy of this medicine is verified, Zhou Yang can hand it over to Yan Gengdong and let them operate and promote this killer weapon with Hong Kong Island as the center.
Zhou Yang is very looking forward to the market performance of the little blue pill. You must know that although this drug is the result of unintentional intervention, its performance in the market is not bad at all.
Historically, due to a combination of circumstances, the little blue pill dramatically became the world's first oral drug for the treatment of male erectile dysfunction, just as the invention of penicillin brought a breakthrough to mankind's conquest of infectious diseases.
This little blue pill is not only known as the miracle drug that "men have been waiting for 4,000 years", but has also become the "wealth money printing machine" of the pharmaceutical giant Pfizer.
In the year the drug came out, doctors wrote more than 7 million prescriptions for 3 million patients, involving up to 50 million tablets of Viagra products, and sales reached $770 million.
By the end of 1998, Viagra had been launched in 40 countries, and Pfizer, where it was based, had revenue that year of $23.2 billion.
In the following two decades, the cumulative sales of the little blue pill reached US$34 billion, becoming a myth in the history of world medicine.
Although the time is now 20 years ahead of schedule, Zhou Yang believes that the market value of this drug will not change because of the advance or setback of time.
After all, as long as a man's powerlessness is difficult for ordinary people to understand, most people are still willing to empty their wallets in order to be a "real man".
It can be said that in the next 20 years, this little blue pill will definitely become the money printing machine of Weiyuan Company.
At the same time, Sickle plans the best boosters and whetstones...
