Chapter 136: The Price of Clobazam Announced (Subscribe!)
Ren Xiaomin's teasing made the two people's "take a walk after dinner" project end quickly.

Ren Xiaomin is old, so he went to the lounge to take a short rest, while Zhang Yang returned to the office to start processing some documents.

Qingshan Pharmaceutical currently has several drug projects, among which "Clobazam" is one that is nearing completion.

The production qualifications have been obtained, and the original drug can be produced stably. The next step is to establish a special distribution agreement with the hospital. After all, this is a controlled drug.

In addition, the price of Clobazam has also been determined.

Zhang Yang, Ren Xiaomin and Wei Tian had discussed the price of Clobazam before. The purchase price of generic drugs from India was 350 yuan, and there was no reimbursement.

The cost of purchasing overseas original drugs is 700 yuan, and there is no reimbursement.

Considering that the production cost is not high and there is no patent fee, the only production materials are still provided by Novartis, but there are certain expenses for approval and storage.
Zhang Yang finally set the retail price at 350 yuan per box, the same as generic drugs produced in India.

but,

After being included in the medical insurance, the medical insurance will reimburse 60%, a total of 210 yuan;
Individuals bear 40% of the cost, which only costs 140 yuan.

140 yuan.

For domestic patients, the emergence of "Qingshan Clobazam" not only solves the dilemma of not being able to buy medicines in the country, but also reduces the selling price while allowing them to eat the original "Clobazam" that they had never dared to think about before!
of course,

Zhang Yang had no intention of making money from Clobazam. There were only 1.2 patients in total. How much money could he make?
As long as the price of 350 yuan per box can cover the cost or make a slight loss, he can continue production.

Soon, his eyes fell on the "Kidney Toxin Clearing Dialysis Needle".

Just these two or three months after the "clobazam" incident, the previous "Kidney Toxin Clearing Dialysis Replacement Injection" also entered the final stage of its Phase I and II clinical trials in the United States and India.

What Zhang Yang did not expect was that 60% of the "Kidney Toxin Clearing Dialysis Replacement Injection" did not cause any major problems in the United States. On the contrary, everything went smoothly.

According to the Phase I clinical data provided by Novartis, the dialysis patients participating in the trial were in good condition and no one had any serious abnormal reactions.

In India, GlaxoSmithKline is conducting phase I and phase II clinical trials simultaneously.
The data provided are more numerous and more comprehensive. Although there were no deaths, with a toxin clearance rate of only 60%, more than a dozen patients still showed obvious symptoms of heart failure. Toxins entered the body and affected the organs.

This is also the reason why Zhang Yang was entangled and worried about conducting experiments in the country.

Fortunately, the most difficult stage has passed. According to the predetermined plan, Zhang Yang immediately instructed Wei Tian to provide the ingredients of the "Kidney Toxin Clearing Replacement Injection" which was improved half a month ago and has an effective clearance rate of 70% to Novartis and GlaxoSmithKline.

Both the FDA and the Indian market will have to conduct a new round of clinical trials. It is time to provide the improved 70% of the drugs.

Novartis and GlaxoSmithKline received the samples quickly. At the same time, the FDA Novartis' Phase II clinical trial began, and GlaxoSmithKline's Phase III clinical trial in India also kicked off.

Mayo Clinic, USA.

To be precise, it should be called the Mayo Clinic.

Among the Chinese middle class, there is a widely circulated saying that if West China Hospital and Union Hospital cannot save you, then try Mayo Clinic.

If Mayo can't do anything, then he can only wait to die.

Mayo Clinic is somewhat unfamiliar to more than one billion ordinary people in China, but it is indeed a globally recognized, top hospital in the world.

Especially in the treatment of gastrointestinal diseases, kidney diseases and endocrine diseases, we are absolutely far ahead in the world.

Stephen had made an appointment with William, a nationally renowned nephrologist, half a month ago. After waiting for about ten minutes, he was allowed to enter the consulting room.

"Stephen, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you? Are you feeling okay lately?"

Stephen is a dialysis patient with uremia and a professor of semiconductors at the University of Minnesota.

Dr. William is his attending physician, and they have a good personal relationship.

"Dr. William, I haven't seen you for a long time either."

“But I don’t feel very good.”

"The quality of my dialysis has been a little bad in the past month. A week ago, I checked my key indicators and found that my blood potassium level was very high. I think I need to solve this problem."

William has seen Stephen's blood report from a week ago on the computer. Dialysis for patients with uremia does not mean that they are fine. On the contrary, dialysis can also bring many adverse reactions and complications.

Among them, high blood potassium concentration is a very common symptom. If not controlled, high blood potassium concentration will affect the heart and digestive system.

However, before he could speak, Stephen said:

"In addition to this matter, I also want to ask, how long will I have to wait for my kidney?"

Doctor William was quickly entering drug information on the computer, but he suddenly stopped when he heard this:

"Professor Stephen, I don't know that either."

"There are too many people in the United States waiting for kidneys right now. There are simply not enough kidneys to be donated, unless... you have a kidney source through special channels."

Hearing this, Professor Stephen looked bitter.

Although he is a university professor, he is not a powerful person with connections everywhere, so it is almost impossible for him to buy a kidney through special channels.

Seeing this, Dr. William continued:

"Moreover, you had a kidney transplant a year ago, but just six months later, the transplanted kidney was severely rejected and ultimately had to be removed by surgery again."

"So, in your case, I suggest you give up the transplant for the short term and just focus on dialysis. Dialysis technology is very mature now, and there are many patients who have been on dialysis for more than 20 years."

Professor Stephen sighed slightly. Kidney transplantation is currently the best way to treat patients with uremia.

He originally thought that he would be able to lead a normal life after the kidney transplant, but unfortunately his body showed severe rejection.

Simply put, the body's immune cells constantly attack the transplanted kidney, eventually causing problems with the transplanted kidney, necessitating surgical removal.

He knew that dialysis, as Dr. William said, was the best solution, but...

"Dr. William, I've been on dialysis for half a year. I'm really fed up with this kind of life."

"When I was a normal person, I would watch an NBA game every week, and go swimming and play basketball!"

"But now! The doctor told me that I can't drink too much water, can't eat too much, and can't do strenuous exercise!"

"My time is tied to the dialysis center and the dialysis machine. I haven't been to a football game or traveled for more than half a year!"

"I even forgot what it felt like to urinate. I felt like I was becoming a robot."

Dr. William fully understood Stephen's complaint, shrugged, then opened the drawer and took out a beautifully produced promotional material.

"Professor Stephen, I introduced it to you last time. This is a 'Kidney Toxin Replacement Injection' from Huaxia Qingshan Pharmaceutical. You can try it. Not only can you feel the feeling of urinating again, but you can also wear it to watch a ball game or even do a little exercise."

Professor Stephen looked at the promotional materials and quickly shook his head:

"You introduced it to me last time, but a 60% toxin removal rate will inevitably have an impact on human organs. I don't want to take any risks."

"Besides, I don't trust medicines from China."

"Oh."

Doctor William spread his hands helplessly:
"Professor Stephen, I understand that you are prejudiced against Chinese pharmaceutical companies, because I also had prejudices against Chinese pharmaceutical companies before, but... Qingshan Pharmaceutical is different from other Chinese pharmaceutical companies."

"Oh, I forgot to tell you that this drug has now entered the Phase II clinical trial,"

"Qingshan Pharmaceutical has increased the effect from 60% to 70%! It is only one step away from the 85% of hemodialysis machines."

"Moreover, this is a drug that can be used to remove toxins instantly. The amount of toxins remaining in the body is not even as much as that of a dialysis machine!"

"70%!"

Professor Stephen was stunned and surprised. In just three months, the effect was improved by 10%? !
