Chapter 330 Drug Testing



The side effects must be unusual as it could have caused Academician Li, who has devoted his entire life to medicine, to be so embarrassed and distressed.

"If the dose is too large, while killing the virus, it will also damage liver and lung function. The patient will feel very painful after taking the medicine, the organ repair time will be longer, and the resistance will be relatively much better. In severe cases, it will cause irreversible effects."

This is just Academician Li's prediction, and clinical trials are still needed.

"Teacher, let me do it." Ma Guangnian kept coughing. "I have been taking medicine for so many days, but there has been no obvious improvement. It would only be a waste of medicine if I continue to treat it. I might as well try the concentrated pills."

If we survive, the medicine can be promoted immediately.

If you can't make it, you can only find another way.

In short, time is life.

One is carrying out a mission, the other is testing drugs at the risk of his life. The atmosphere in the laboratory is particularly tragic.

This period of time was indeed very busy, but the practical knowledge I learned from several big-name teachers cannot be acquired by reading books. In particular, Academician Li was very approachable and would answer all of Jiang Ning's questions and even expand his knowledge.

So she compromised and said, "The concentrated pill is too lethal. How about reducing the dosage by half and taking it twice to try? If it really doesn't work, then we can use a one-step solution."

Even though it is divided into two times, the amount of medicine consumed is actually much larger than that consumed in one go.

By this calculation, the current medicinal materials are far from enough.

You know, not only the survivors in Fengcheng and Yuecheng are waiting for medicine, but countless cities including Pengcheng and Huicheng are also waiting.

So far, the prescription of Guangdong Research Institute has the best effect. Even if the antidote is to be developed, it will have to support other cities.

Among many cities, the Fengcheng officials were the most cunning. They took advantage of the halo of drug donations from caring people and specially sent people to guard the door of the research institute, waiting to bring back the finished drugs.

Not wanting to see Academician Li still carrying moral shackles at such an old age, she suggested, "Professor Li, we can come up with both plans and let the authorities choose. Maybe they will send someone out to find the drug?"

Ma Guangnian was very supportive and said, "Teacher, these two key drugs are very scarce, but there are still kind people who donate so much at one time. Maybe there are other ways to find them?"

After discussion, it was finally decided to implement both plans simultaneously.

As a student of traditional Chinese medicine, Jiang Ning naturally would not miss the pharmaceutical preparation process and took the opportunity to follow along and learn.

All medicines are poisonous to some extent, and the dosage cannot be determined arbitrarily. It is like arsenic. A small amount can cure the disease, but a large amount can cause bleeding.

After enduring for three consecutive days, Academician Li finally couldn't bear it anymore and fell asleep in a short while.

Huo Yishen brewed some hot tea and placed it on the table, not forgetting to put his coat on him.

Many equipments in the research institute were damaged. Several people overcame numerous difficulties and used ancient methods to prepare concentrated pills based on Academician Li's prescription.

Ma Guangnian swallowed one without hesitation.

After about half an hour, my liver and lungs felt terrible, as if countless insects were biting me madly.

Not wanting to alarm the teacher, he bit his handkerchief tightly and rolled on the ground in pain.

After two hours of intermittent work, it was like cutting meat with a blunt knife. Ma Guangnian broke out in cold sweat and his face was as pale as paper.

The worst thing to do at this time is to avoid being exposed to the wind, so Jiang Ning took out his military coat and covered him with it, "Teacher Ma, don't catch a cold."

The symptoms were relieved, but his vitality was greatly drained. After resting for half a day, he still had no strength to walk, and finally had to be carried back to the dormitory by Huo Yishen.

The food in the cafeteria is just enough to fill your stomach, forget about nutrition.

Even though Jiang Ning donated supplies in return, there were too many people, so it was good enough for each person to get two slices of bacon per meal.

Jiang Ning made him some soy milk, cooked some cured meat rice in a clay pot, and then poached two eggs in it.

One for him and one for Academician Li. As for Old Hu, since he was being taken care of by Yutong, it would be better for her to stay away from him.

After all, the domineering president’s nuclear power is too powerful, and I always feel that getting close to him will lead to misfortune.

"Teacher Ma, you have to eat well these few days and try to replenish your vitality. You have to take the second dose of medicine in three days."

Jiang Ning took care of his three meals and asked Huo Yishen to deliver them to him at the appointed time.

If there is no soup, cook black moss egg drop soup.

Three days passed like this: eating, sleeping, and soaking feet.

Ma Guangnian's symptoms were greatly alleviated, but he still had a low fever, dizziness, drowsiness, shortness of breath, and his cough had eased a lot.

Under Jiang Ning's special care, his mental and physical condition are getting better.

So he took the second pill.

It hurts, but it's not like last time when I rolled on the ground. It's more like having the fever.

Drink more hot water and get as much sleep as possible after soaking your feet.

Ma Guangnian recovered quickly. After three days, his cough stopped. Except for weakness, all other symptoms disappeared.

I just can't overwork myself. I get out of breath when I climb stairs, but I believe the aftereffects will gradually disappear.

The disposable concentrated pills were also being tested. Considering that Ma Guangnian had such a severe reaction to the medicine, the research institute did not dare to give it to critically ill patients, but instead found patients with mild symptoms who were in better physical condition.

It was said to be a mild case, but in fact I was almost coughing to death, and I was only holding on by willpower.

Jiang Ning felt that he looked familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.

"It's you?" The other party was also surprised.

Jiang Ning, who has a bad memory, could only smile awkwardly, "Yeah."

Seeing that she had forgotten, the other party reminded her: "Remember the tsunami? You brought back a wounded soldier at that time."

After hearing this, Jiang Ning had some impression that he should be the comrade who received the injured soldier.

Jiang Ning was quite surprised, "Is that young comrade okay?"

"Thanks for the medicine you gave him. He survived and was later assigned to another camp."

After a brief greeting, Jiang Ning did not hide anything and informed the possible side effects of the drug in advance. "Now is the drug trial stage. You have the right to decide whether to try it or not. Please make your own decision."

He didn't hesitate, "I'll try."

If even they can't survive, it will be even more difficult for ordinary survivors.

As expected, the reaction after taking the medicine was very strong. Even though he gritted his teeth and endured it, the pain still made veins bulge on his forehead and he couldn't stop sweating all over his body.

"puff!"

He fell to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood, which was full of lung residue.

Jiang Ning was afraid that vomiting blood would cause him to choke and suffocate, so he quickly helped to change the man from lying on his back to lying on his side, while other medical staff disinfected the blood to avoid infection.

Three hours later, his symptoms eased, but all his strength was drained away.

If it weren't for his strong mental strength, I doubt he would have made it.

He felt a little better the next day. Seeing that he had very little energy and no nutritional injections could be given to him, the medical staff secretly added two pieces of bacon and a small piece of cured fish to his meals.

The comparison results came out quickly. Ma Guangnian took the medicine in two doses. He was older and his physical fitness was not as good as that of young people, but he recovered better afterwards.

The side effects for the soldiers who tried the drug were more obvious and their recovery was much slower.
