Chapter 157 The efficacy of the quick-acting heart-saving pills and He Shengnan's distress

Guanganmen Hospital.

A patient came into the internal medicine clinic and expressed his gratitude to Wang Mengde.

He said that he was alone at home last night and suddenly suffered a chest pain attack before going to bed. It was a critical moment, but fortunately he had the pills given by Wang Mengde and was out of danger.

"Doctor Wang, I won't say anything more. You are my lifesaver. I will never forget this kindness. If you need any help in the future, please tell me directly."

Wu Chao said with a grateful look on his face.

He is the second-in-command of a factory in Beijing. A few years ago, he suffered from chest pain due to too many social engagements. He has been to many hospitals and always keeps nitroglycerin tablets at home.

However, as the frequency of taking the tablets increased, the effect of the nitroglycerin tablets became less and less effective. On several occasions, if I had not been sent to the hospital in time, I would have lost my life.

A few days ago, he accidentally learned from the leaders of other factories that Mr. Pu and his apprentice Doctor Wang in Guang'anmen Hospital were very good and specialized in treating difficult and complicated diseases, so he came here with the mentality of giving it a try.

Of course, the result of the diagnosis and treatment did not disappoint him, nor did it bring any surprises. Apart from the fact that Doctor Wang gave him a few injections and he felt a little better, he was only given fifty pills made of Chinese medicine.

Moreover, he was specifically told that he did not need to take these Chinese medicine pills when he did not feel any symptoms. However, if he felt any symptoms or had an acute attack, he should take them orally immediately.

At first, he didn't care much and just casually put the pills in his pocket.

But every time I changed clothes, I somehow put these pills in the pocket of the new clothes.

His action ultimately saved his life.

At that time, the disease broke out suddenly. There was no one at home and he was unable to call for help. Just when he felt he was about to die, he suddenly remembered Wang Mengde's instructions, and then he used all his strength to take out the medicine from the pocket of his clothes beside the bed.

"Comrade Wu, these are what I should do. By the way, what's your condition now? Stretch out your hand and I'll take your pulse."

Wang Mengde was already used to being thanked by his patients, he said calmly.

Behind them, Zhang Qiaoyu and Li Xiang had proud expressions on their faces.

This is their respected senior brother who saves lives and brings health to patients every day.

He took Wu Chao's pulse and observed him for a while, then carefully asked about his feeling and his diet and sleep habits in the past few days.

Wang Mengde had an idea in mind.

"Comrade Wu, you've been drinking too much and too frequently lately, and you often go to bed late, which are the causes of chest pain. You should be more careful recently."

After talking about the precautions, he continued, "I'll prescribe a few doses of medicine for you. Go back and boil them. Oh, and I'll give you 75 quick-acting heart-saving pills. Take these pills three times a day, five pills each time, which is just enough for five days.

After five days of taking the medicine, come back and make an appointment with me, and I will take a look at it for you. Also, you must carry the remaining 40 pills I gave you last time with you. If you have a condition like last night, take it orally immediately. "

While writing the prescription with a pen in hand, he instructed Zhang Qiaoyun to take out seventy-five quick-acting heart-saving pills.

These pills are still in the experimental stage and are not available in the hospital pharmacy. Only he and Mr. Pu have them.

"Doctor Wang, how about you give me more of these quick-acting heart-saving pills? I'm afraid I won't have time to come get new ones after I finish them."

When Wu Chao heard that Wang Mengde only gave him seventy-five life-saving pills, he immediately became anxious.

After the dangerous situation last night, he is now deeply afraid. He never wants to experience the feeling of being about to die again.

At the same time, he is even more superstitious about the quick-acting heart pills that can save lives, so he plans to keep some extra at home to prevent accidents.

"Haha, Comrade Wu, we don't have enough of this medicine in the hospital at the moment. So, I'll prescribe more for you when you come for a follow-up visit in a few days."

Wang Mengde said with a smile.

This batch of quick-acting heart-saving pills was made by hand with the help of an experienced pharmacist from the Chinese Medical Research Institute. Not many were made at the beginning, only about a thousand pills.

And most of them were taken away by Mr. Pu, so he only had more than 300 pills left.

Now that patients have responded that the quick-acting heart-saving pills are very effective, he can ask the hospital to produce more.

"Okay, I will come on time in five days. Please leave me some more of these quick-acting heart-saving pills, Doctor Wang."

Wu Chao had a look of disappointment on his face, and then he spoke politely.

After Zhang Qiaoyu handed him the pills, he carefully packed the things in his bag, then thanked her profusely and went to the pharmacy to get the medicine with the prescription.

After he left, while there were no patients coming in, Wang Mengde ordered: "Junior Brother Li Xiang, go find Elder Lu now and ask him to prepare more medicinal materials in advance.

After I get off work, I'll go see my husband first, and then go over there in the afternoon when I'm at work. It seems we need to prepare more of these quick-acting heart pills."

Mr. Lu is a pharmaceutical worker in the Chinese Medical Research Institute. He used to be a pharmaceutical master at Tong Ren Tang. It can be said that he has been dealing with medicinal materials and pharmaceuticals for most of his life.

Some time ago, Wang Mengde asked him to help make pills for treating rickets.

"Yes, brother, I'll go right away."

Behind him, Li Ying responded in a voice.

Then he put down the notebook and pen in his hand, turned around and walked out.

noon.

After coming out of Guang'anmen Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Wang Mengde did not go to eat immediately, but went straight to Pu Lao's office.

He knew his teacher's habits. Usually when there were many people in the cafeteria, he would go to the office first, wait for half an hour until there were fewer people in the cafeteria, and then go to eat.

Then, when he knocked on the door and went in, he saw Mr. Pu holding a medical book and reading it intently.

"gentlemen."

Said hello.

"Meng De is here, why don't you go to eat? What's the matter?"

Seeing his proud disciple coming in, Pu Lao asked curiously.

Normally, at this time, he should be queuing in the cafeteria.

"Sir, when I was seeing patients this morning, I met a patient with chest pain. I gave him dozens of quick-acting heart-saving pills a few days ago. I didn't expect that I saved his life last night."

Wang Mengde recounted what had just happened in detail.

After hearing what his student said, a smile appeared on Pu Lao's face.

He didn't say anything, but took out a notebook from the drawer of his desk, then turned to a page and handed it to Wang Mengde.

He reached out to take the notebook. Although he felt a little strange about the teacher's behavior, he still patiently read the contents.

After just seeing a few lines of words, he realized that these were the notes taken by the teacher.

It also records in detail the conditions and changes in the condition of patients with chest pain after taking the quick-acting heart-saving pills.

There are records of five people in total in the notebook.

Three of them took quick-acting heart-saving pills immediately after feeling unwell, and all of them achieved very good results; the symptoms on their bodies quickly disappeared.

The other two people were in the same situation as Wu Chao. They all took quick-acting heart-saving pills during the acute attack and recovered quickly.

"Sir, these people..."

After reading it, Wang Mengde said excitedly.

“Haha, these people are all patients I met during this period. Then I contacted five people and gave them the quick-acting heart-saving pills. I also asked them to regularly report the effects of the pills.

I didn't expect that this medicine would be so effective. It is especially useful for first aid for patients with sudden attacks of thoracic pain.

The efficacy is not inferior to that of nitroglycerin tablets, and for the time being, there are few side effects. At the same time, our Chinese medicine basically has no drug resistance. It seems that you have successfully developed another amazing drug. "Pu Lao explained happily, and then went on to praise the magic of this medicine.

It was the first time that he had seen this kind of Chinese medicine pill that had emergency effect on chest pain.

"Sir, I will go to see Mr. Lu this afternoon and ask him to help make more and find a few more patients to try it out."

Wang Mengde also said happily.

After he readjusted the two medicinal ingredients, he created a new version of the 'Quick-Acting Heart-Saving Pills', which was stronger than the original version, mainly in terms of speed of taking effect, which was comparable to nitroglycerin tablets.

“Well, that’s one, and the other one is to report to Dean Lu immediately.

This is a life-saving prescription. I hope the country can mass-produce the drug as soon as possible so that patients can use it as soon as possible.

Also, you must keep this prescription confidential. Apart from you and me, only Dean Lu and Mr. Lu, who makes the medicine, can know about it in the institute. No one else can reveal it."

Mr. Pu gave another reminder.

"Yes, sir, I remember that."

Wang Mengde's heart moved, and he thought of some rumors about the quick-acting heart-saving pills in his previous life. It was said that this prescription was a confidential state secret technology, and no one knew whether it was true or not.

But the preciousness of this prescription is still foreseeable.

After coming out of Pu Lao's office, he went back to get his lunch box and went straight to the cafeteria.

After finishing his meal, he rested for a while. When it was time to go to work, he went to see Mr. Lu first, explained the number of pills that needed to be produced, and then walked to President Lu's office.

"What? You've developed another drug that has the same effect as nitroglycerin tablets, but with fewer side effects?"

Dean Lu looked surprised.

It hasn't been long since this young man has produced results again.

While he was shocked, he thought of this man's previous "achievements" and felt relieved.

If it was Wang Mengde, this situation would be very reasonable.

Thinking of this, he reached out to take the prescription and case record and read them carefully.

I focused on the feedback from six users.

When he saw three patients with emergency attacks recover quickly after taking this quick-acting heart-saving pill, he quickly judged the importance of this prescription.

So I learned about the research process of this prescription.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he learned that only Mr. Pu, Wang Mengde and Mr. Lu knew the prescription.

After instructing Wang Mengde to keep the secret, he hurriedly asked his secretary to prepare the car, and he would report the situation to his superiors immediately.

After a busy day's work.

Go home.

He first visited his daughter, and then chatted with his wife who was in confinement and unable to go out.

"Shengnan, in a few days, our daughter will be one month old. I thought, when the time comes, we can invite both families together and have a simple meal to celebrate her one month old."

Wang Mengde took a palm-leaf fan, fanned himself slowly, and then spoke in a low voice.

It's already June and the weather is quite hot.

Next to him, He Shengnan wiped the sweat off her face with a towel and whispered, "Okay, just eat a little. Every household is in financial difficulty right now, so it's not appropriate for us to have a big celebration."

She has been eating very well in the past month, with at least ten poached eggs in brown sugar every day, and an old hen and pork liver and kidneys every few days.

As for where these things came from, the whole family tacitly agreed not to ask.

Of course, these were all eaten at home behind closed doors. If outsiders asked about it, they would say that they were given to them by friends. Anyway, the neighbors in the courtyard all knew that Wang Mengde had many powerful friends.

Many leaders of units and factory directors and managers often came to visit him with gifts.

Even the leaders have sent gifts to their home.

Sunday.

This day happened to be my daughter's full moon day.

Wang Mengde got up early in the morning and cleaned the house with Ran Xiaomei. Then they went to the grocery store and bought some meat, ribs, and other vegetables.

When he returned home, the pork he was carrying had increased in weight from eight ounces to one and a half pounds, a full three times more.

At this time, my mother-in-law and her family also arrived.

Seeing the meat and ribs in his hands, the He family's children all swallowed their saliva and stared at them.

In May, the meat ticket policy was adjusted again, from one meat ticket every ten days (three tickets per month) to two tickets per month, and each ticket was still worth one tael.

This meant that their family could only eat meat twice a month at most, and because there were so many people, each person could only get a few pieces.

noon.

There were seven or eight plates and bowls on the dining table. The main dish was a bowl of greasy braised pork and braised spareribs, and there were also scrambled eggs, stewed tofu, and so on.

About ten people, regardless of gender, age or status, gathered together.

The children wielded their chopsticks very quickly, eating from bowls and bowls full of food with their mouths full of oil.

He Guangyao and Zhou Xiaoyan also indulged in their meat cravings. After finishing their meal, she shyly took out a few food coupons from her pocket and handed them to Ran Xiaomei, saying:

"Mother-in-law, these are the food coupons for our meal. We have already used up the meat coupons. I will get them when they are issued next month."

Since the implementation of the food coupon policy, every family is not well-off in terms of food, so when visiting someone's home, people would take the initiative to bring some food coupons.

"What are you doing? You're just coming to my house for a meal. There's no reason for you to accept food coupons."

Ran Xiaomei's face changed and she quickly refused.

"Mom, you don't have to give it to me. We have enough food at home."

Wang Mengde also advised from the side.

He would put two kilograms of white flour and cornmeal into the rice jar at home every few days, so that the rice could not be finished every month and there would still be three to five kilograms left over.

Several people pushed and shoved each other, and finally, seeing their firm attitude, Zhou Xiaoyan had no choice but to take the food coupons.

At this time, the daughter's crying sound came from the bedroom. She just woke up and felt hungry.

He Shengnan quickly stood up and walked in, and Wang Mengde followed her.

He picked up his daughter, lifted a corner and started feeding her.

Suddenly, she lowered her head, her face turned ugly, and she said, "Meng De, look at these lines on my belly, they are so ugly."

Wang Mengde stretched his head to look at her belly and found that they were stretch marks.

He suddenly thought of a prescription he had accidentally researched some time ago, so he whispered, "Shengnan, don't worry. I'll give you an ointment in two days. Try applying it."

"Can the ointment make these lines disappear?"
