"To achieve the efficacy level of brand-name drugs, you have to invest significant funds into reverse engineering, and conduct double-blind clinical trials to verify efficacy. Even so, brand-name drug companies continuously improve pharmaceutical techniques and formulations to enhance efficacy and create new patents..."
In short, unless you pour a substantial amount of money into it, even if you manage to produce generic drugs, their effectiveness will be significantly compromised. It's not just about having the equipment or formula.
The cost of the entire process likely won't be lower than that of brand-name drugs.
If making money were really that easy, Lin Miao wouldn't be considering this idea.
However, Gloria's words didn't sway Lin Miao's decision.
"So, if we can have a group of research technicians from pharmaceutical companies along with AI assistance, we can quickly begin generic drug production."
"...In theory, yes."
