Chapter 415: Chapter 192: Imported Drugs and Dostic Generic Drugs, The Ruthless Husband
For ordinary people, the most feared disease is cancer.
Because in many people’s minds, cancer represents death and terminal illness.
“This is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease, not cancer. Although so call it ‘green cancer’, it is not as terrifying as cancer. However, with the current level of dical science, this disease requires lifelong dication and cannot be completely cured yet.”
Director Jia explained to her.
After hearing this, the girl’s face turned a shade paler, and her expression beca sowhat desolate.
This outco was slightly better than she had anticipated, but the term ‘green cancer’ still brought significant psychological pressure to her.
Especially hearing that the disease was incurable and required lifelong dication, it was like a bolt from the blue for anyone.
“Old Jia, please prescribe dicine for ! I thought it was cancer, this diagnosis is much better than I expected.” No matter how one looked at it, it seed she was forcing a smile.
Director Jia did not rush to prescribe her dication but continued to analyze her condition.
“Your disease is currently in an acute phase, with disturbances in water, electrolyte, and acid-base balance. Fortunately, there is no intestinal perforation yet, which is sothing to be grateful for. You need to be particularly cautious about transmural inflammatory lesions. It can penetrate the full layer of the intestinal wall to tissues or organs outside the intestine, forming a fistula. If you experience severe discomfort, you must co to the hospital for a check-up promptly.”
Once an internal fistula forms, it may connect to other intestinal segnts, sentery, bladder, ureter, or a particular area of the peritoneum.
If an external fistula forms, it can lead to the abdominal wall or the skin around the anus.
If the condition progresses to this stage, the cost of treatnt and the patient’s level of suffering will significantly increase.
Therefore, for any disease, once discovered, one must overco fear and receive tily and correct treatnt.
One cannot delay.
Every delay ans allowing the disease to worsen.
For example, chronic kidney disease should be treated urgently when urinary protein abnormality increases, as the treatnt outcos at this stage are relatively ideal.
If delayed to the advanced stage, both kidneys might atrophy, and at that point, apart from kidney transplant and dialysis, there will be no other options left. Typically, kidney damage is irreversible.
So people’s uremia is literally dragged out by delays.
“Let tell you about the treatnt options. Currently, there are no intestinal perforation, abscess, intestinal obstruction, or fistulas; these severe conditions are not present. So, surgery is not required for now; taking dication will suffice. The drugs for treating this disease are also made dostically to so extent, but the research level, production techniques of Western dicine abroad are much better than ours. Currently, our country produces generics, so if conditions allow, I recomnd you take imported drugs.”
Director Jia was very careful when saying these words.
Perhaps it was because he saw how young she was, and it would be such a pity if a delay caused by ineffective drugs occurred.
“Of course, if your financial situation isn’t great, you can try the dostic generics first.”
Director Jia also knew this girl was young and alone, with likely limited financial resources.
It’s just a doctor’s parental instinct.
Doctors always want to recomnd the best treatnt option to their patients.
Many people know that India’s generics are famous, but our country’s pharmaceutical level is not bad.
It’s just that so drugs are protected by intellectual property and patent rights, which is why there are no generics.
However, we must admit that there is a significant gap between our country and developed countries in terms of dical devices, consumables, and Western dicine.
For instance, in the case of artificial blood vessels, dostic ones, when implanted in the human body, show more severe calcification and degradation; their patency rates are also inferior to those from abroad. There are so minor differences in usability and lifespan.
So, the gap is quite large.
Even many surgeons, especially when dealing with critically ill patients, prefer to use imported critical consumables and dications.
“I ca from another province specifically to see you because I trust you. Since you strongly recomnd that I use imported dicines, I will definitely consider it first. If it exceeds my financial capacity, then there’s nothing I can do.”
She was quite straightforward.
“Using imported dication once can last about two months, costing about 15,000 per ti. Do you think you can accept that?”
7,500 per month is a significant financial burden.
Director Jia stated this and quietly waited for the girl to make her own decision.
“What about the treatnt with dostic drugs? How much does it cost per ti?”
The girl heard the high treatnt cost, obviously much higher than her expected price point.
“It’s about 5,000 per ti, this treatnt price may fluctuate, it’s not fixed. Using dostic drugs, there’s fear of complications or not being able to control the disease’s progression, which would be troubleso.”
Director Jia provided his guidance.
The patient has the choice of which treatnt thod to use, the doctor cannot directly decide.
Usually, the pros and cons are stated, allowing the patient to make their own choice.
Often, so patients who co for consultation, upon hearing they need to be hospitalized for surgery, or have a fistula created on their body, or that the dication can only control or delay the progression of the disease, they would choose to give up treatnt.
Or after leaving, they would turn to traditional Chinese dicine or try folk redies on their own.
“I’ll still use imported drugs! As long as my body doesn’t collapse, if my salary from work isn’t enough, I can set up a stall or take part-ti jobs after work. I just hope that the dical level advances further, and soday drugs that can completely cure this disease will be developed.”
