"You see, I still need to work to support myself, so I can't stay in China for a long time, if I can bring more medicine back, it will be much more convenient to come to you for a review after a while." Ron explained.

Shen Long shrugged, "The medicine can be sold to you, but I can't guarantee that you can pass the customs inspection smoothly, once it is confiscated, I am afraid the consequences will be serious." ”

The U.S. Customs stipulates that not all foreign-produced drugs have been verified and supervised by the FDA, so they are not allowed to be brought into the United States, and until now, traditional Chinese medicine has not been recognized by the FDA, and traditional Chinese medicine has always been regarded as a health food or nutritional supplement in the United States; Moreover, many medicinal materials contain ingredients that are prohibited by the FDA, and if they are found at customs, they are basically confiscated.

Ron is an American, and he can still enter the country after confiscation, and if the Chinese bring Chinese medicine and are found to be a prohibited ingredient, he will be immediately repatriated and not allowed to enter the country for a certain period of time.

"Isn't there a prescription?" Ron hadn't brought medicine back from abroad before, so he didn't know much about it.

Shen Long shook his head, "The U.S. Food and Drug Administration does not approve these prescriptions, and if you don't have other channels, there is no way to bring these drugs back to the United States." ”

"Damn it!" Ron is on fire again, so can't he only stay in China for a long time? This is not good, he is not applying for a work visa this time.

"Haven't you thought about passing the FDA review? There are also a large number of patients in the United States and in Europe who need this medicine, and if you do have this medicine, it can save patients all over the world. Ron asked as he regained his composure.

"It is very difficult for proprietary Chinese medicines to pass the FDA review, and it is basically unrealistic from the current point of view." Shen Long shook his head and said that the internationalization of traditional Chinese medicine has been very difficult, and it was not until 2012 that Diao Pharmaceutical's Diao Xinxuekang Capsule was certified in the Netherlands, becoming the first botanical drug approved by China in the European market.

As of Shenlong's entry into this world, a total of eight drugs have been qualified for overseas marketing, more than 10 varieties have submitted IND (clinical trial) applications to the US FDA, and some varieties have entered phase III clinical studies, but none of them have passed, among which Tasly Compound Danshen Dripping Pill has spent 20 years without success.

"At present, my pharmaceutical factory is carrying out the development of modern chemical drugs, but it will take time to succeed in research and development, and it is difficult to say whether it can pass the FDA review, you know, I have violated the interests of Nova Company, and they will definitely do their best to prevent me from passing the FDA review." Shen Long said.

Ron was silent, he also went online, and he also knew about the recent pharmaceutical company scandal that broke out on the Internet, and he knew very well what those pharmaceutical giants could do in order to protect their own interests, and it was too difficult for a foreign pharmaceutical company, especially a pharmaceutical company from China, to pass the FDA review under the obstruction of Nova Company.

"Well, thank you very much, Dear Dr. Cheng, I will take this medicine for a while after I go back, and if it gets better before I leave China, I will find a way to see if I can ship this medicine back to the United States!" Ron got up and left.

After a while, just as Ron was about to return to the United States, he re-examined and found that his condition had indeed improved, so he re-emerged the idea of buying medicine and returning home.

He intends to enlist the help of his relatives, who are diplomats and are qualified to send diplomatic pouches (bags, envelopes, boxes) used in the intercommunication between his own government, embassies, consulates and missions to international organizations, conferences, etc., and which bear an identification mark on the outside and are used to contain diplomatic documents or official goods; It mainly transports top-secret documents, a large number of relatively confidential documents, and official supplies that are not suitable for mailing; The pouch may be delivered by a diplomatic courier or entrusted to the captain of a commercial aircraft in possession of an official document indicating the number of pouches, and a third party may not open or detain it.

Customs does not have the authority to inspect such pouches, so many diplomats have used this method to their own advantage, such as Ecuador and Russian diplomats who have used diplomatic pouches to transport poison.

Diplomats in the United States occasionally use this channel to ship things that are not appropriate for customs to know, and Ron is well aware of this, so he goes to his relatives and talks about it.

His relatives loved him very much, and since it was a life-saving medicine for him, and it was not a too sensitive item, he agreed, and used his own channels to send the medicinal diplomatic pouch that Ron bought back to the United States, and then his friends in the United States resent it to Ron.

After returning to the United States, Ron met with his patients, who were surprised to see him getting better, so they pestered him to ask him what medicine Ron was taking.

"I went to China, you know, my uncle George was a diplomat in China, and he told me that recently there was a miraculous doctor in China who used traditional Chinese medicine to invent a very effective new medicine, and many patients were given a new life with him, so I went to China and met this doctor and got proper treatment." Ron explained.

"Then this medicine and the consultation fee must be very expensive, right?" The patient was a little moved, but considering that his financial conditions were not as good as Ron's, he began to retreat again.

"No, no, no, the cost of the consultation plus the cost of medicine, the cost of a month is less than a hundred dollars, which is much cheaper than the damn Grenin! I eat Glenin for a month, which is enough for several years! And the condition is still improving! I even felt like I had hope of healing. As soon as he talked about the cost, Ron began to gnash his teeth again.

"Oh sell cakes, is that true? Ron, it's not April Fool's Day, and it's not a joke! The big guys didn't believe him.

"I can swear in my grandmother's name!" Ron solemnly swore an oath, "Actually, you don't need to go to China to see a doctor in person, as long as you can buy medicine!" I've just brought some more back this time, you can try to stop that damn Glenin and eat for a while! ”

Ron and these patients have been together for a long time looking for various treatment options, and they have already formed a deep friendship, and since there is such a good thing, it will definitely not be enjoyed alone.

"However, I need to remind you that this drug has not passed the FDA review, I shipped it back to the United States through a special channel, and you must not be discovered, otherwise not only will you have no medicine to eat, but you may also go to jail." Ron warned.

His current situation is exactly the same as that of Cheng Yong at the beginning, he can find a more suitable replacement, but he can't sell it publicly.
