Chapter 327 A low-key miracle drug, a life-saving straw for a few dollars!

One-fifth Xu Qiu shook his head blankly.

He had no choice.

To be honest, before mutism appeared, all doctors had ruled out tumor fever by default.

Because the tumor index was not high.

And this high probability also means that even if the patient has a brain tumor, it is a very early change, and there may not be many abnormalities in imaging.

In other words, even if a brain CT scan is done at the risk, nothing may be seen in the end...

What the family can get is [CT diagnosis report with no obvious abnormalities]*1, [corpse]*1.

It is extremely uneconomical.

If this kind of patient is sent to the outpatient department, the doctor will only say close follow-up.

But at this time, telling Tao Changhan and Tao to follow up closely is obviously not a suitable choice.

"Doctor Xu, I haven't taught him this, and I don't know how to do it." Director Jiang said quite honestly.

Everyone's eyes fell on Xu Qiu.

"Linhai First Hospital can't do it." Xu Qiu said calmly.

At this moment, Director Jiang and others' pupils shrank.

Is Xu Qiu also not okay?

This was the first time they heard the word "no way" from Xu Qiu.

It was tantamount to sentencing Tao Changhan to death.

"Or, transfer..."

Director Jiang was about to tell the family to transfer to another hospital, but he saw Xu Qiu took out a piece of paper and wrote a drug name on it.

He stretched his neck to take a look.

"Naproxen"

"This..."

Director Jiang's tone rose a few notes, and the study materials that he secretly turned on the computer to read one night without telling all the nurses came to his mind.

The niche document that recorded tumor fever mentioned that there was an unexpected special medicine to fight tumor fever.

It was naproxen!

Naproxen is a relatively obscure drug, and many clinicians may not know it, let alone its pharmacological mechanism and indications.

It is similar to aspirin and ibuprofen. It is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug that exerts anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis.

The main function is actually to relieve pain. It has been used to treat pain and swelling symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, gout, etc.

Later, it was discovered that it has a miraculous effect on tumor fever.

Basically, take one or two pills and it will go away immediately within a few hours!

It is called the "magic drug for cancer fever".

Unfortunately, why naproxen is so magical, while the same type of ibuprofen and aspirin have no such effect at all, and no one has come to a conclusion so far.

This is also the helplessness of medicine.

Not only is the mechanism of naproxen against cancer fever still a mystery, but even the mechanism of why tumors can cause fever is still unclear.

There are a lot of theories, such as tumor cells secrete endogenous pyrogens; tumor tissue necrosis releases pyrogens and latent infections, etc., but they all have their own limitations. They can only hypnotize themselves within their own theories, and ultimately cannot convince all medical workers.

However, these are not important. Whether it is cancer fever or not, taking naproxen can immediately identify it!

Director Jiang took a deep breath.

He couldn't understand.

Naproxen kills cancer fever, which he accidentally saw from the vast sea of ​​literature.

This effect is not even written in the instructions of the low-key naproxen, which still only has the old anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. This is also in line with its historical status, like an old stubborn person in the field of medicine who does not care about fame and fortune.

It is only through a few articles and word of mouth from doctors who have used it that the "God of Cancer Fever" has spread in a small range.

No wonder the tumor surgery department is not consulted...

Even if the doctors in the tumor surgery department are not in their 50s or 60s, they may not know this drug that is not recorded in any textbooks or guidelines, right?

He looked at Xu Qiu and felt that this handsome guy was even more handsome for a while, and there was even a halo behind his head.

…

"But why do you say that Linhai First Hospital has no way?" Director Jiang recovered from the shock and remembered Xu Qiu's words.

Xu Qiu handed the note with the name of the medicine to Ms. Tao, and then said: "The pharmacy of Linhai First Hospital does not have this medicine, and it is rare on the market. If you want to buy it, you may have to go to many pharmacies. You can buy it outside."

Ms. Tao took the note solemnly, "Is it so difficult to buy... Doctor, don't worry, I will buy this medicine no matter how much it costs!"

Xu Qiu: "It's very cheap, a few yuan a box. But this medicine is too old and doesn't make money, so not many pharmacies have it."

Ms. Tao was stunned for a moment.

So cheap?

Just a few yuan can verify the problem that troubles all doctors and avoid a high-risk cranial CT scan? !

Director Jiang laughed and said: "So he is Doctor Xu... Prescribing medicine and examinations is not expensive, but suitable. Sometimes, a few yuan is more effective than a few thousand yuan examination."

The attending doctor and one-fifth Xu Qiu were in awe.

Even if they had an extra brain, they probably wouldn't have thought that cancer fever could be identified with a box of medicine worth a few dollars...

Even Director Jiang, a famous general in the ICU, had only glanced at the literature.

It wasn't until Xu Qiu wrote the name of the medicine that he suddenly remembered it.

But Xu Qiu directly gave this solution...Does he have a paper library in his head?

...

At around seven o'clock in the evening, Ms. Tao rushed back panting.

She ran to more than 30 pharmacies and finally went to the nearby Jinghai City, and finally found it in a conscientious pharmacy that had been open for more than 40 years.

In the ICU, doctors including Director Jiang looked at the box of medicine curiously.

That look was like a wolf and a tiger, not even a single inch of it was missed.

"It's amazing."

"The instructions really don't mention the words cancer fever. If it wasn't for Dr. Xu, who would have thought of this drug?"

Everyone was amazed.

Naproxen is indeed a rare drug in the circle of clinical doctors, and even these ICU doctors have never heard of it.

"Do you want to give the drug directly?" One-fifth Xu Qiu grabbed the box and couldn't wait to pick out a pill.

Director Jiang glared: "Why are you asking me? Go ask Dr. Xu!"

After the call, Xu Qiu gave a "yes" answer.

The ICU quickly inserted the medicine.

At 10:30 in the evening, two hours after taking the medicine, Tao Changhan's low fever subsided, 36.7 degrees, and the effect was extremely significant.

This is also the first time that the patient's body temperature has been below 37 degrees after repeated fevers for many days.

"Dad, try your best, lower it!" Seeing that the old man was in good spirits and his eyes were shining, Tao's daughter also returned to her usual livelyness and cheered him up.

Director Jiang said silently: "It can't be lowered any further, or he will go into hypothermic hibernation..."

"That's great, it's just like the Three Body Problem, right? If my father's disease can't be cured now, just freeze him and wait until medical technology is advanced in the future!"

"This..."

Director Jiang, who has always been able to easily control the family members, is a little confused.

"Doctor, tell me, can my father's disease be cured?"

Director Jiang's eyes lit up, as if he had seen a life-saving straw, and said in a light and pretentious tone: "This is simple, go ask Doctor Xu."
