The most expensive drug in the hospital is the peptide-containing drugs:
Peptide drugs have been involved in 14 therapeutic areas, more than 140 varieties.
Peptides are familiar yet unfamiliar to us: globulin is a peptide, placenta, stem cells are peptides, insulin, oxytocin is a peptide, thymosin is a peptide.
Chinese definition: "Moon" "Sun" is the "peptide", Yin and Yang balance is the peptide.
To give you a few more familiar examples:
1. Thymosin-5 peptide, (allergy, infection and immunity),
Anti-cancer, the treatment of certain autoimmune diseases (such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, etc.), a variety of cellular immune dysfunction.
2. eptifibatide-7 peptide, (cardiovascular),
For the treatment of coronary heart disease; a needle 8000 dollars.
3. octreotide-8 peptide, (gastrointestinal),
Treatment of stress ulcer and peptic ulcer caused by bleeding, allergies, infections and immune class;
4. Lancet peptide (8 peptide), (endocrine type)
For the treatment of acromegaly and neuroendocrine tumors caused by the syndrome;
5. Leuprolide-10 Peptide, (Tumor type)

6. Bivalirudin-20 Peptide, (blood type)

8. Insulin-51 peptide, (metabolism type),
Treatment of diabetes;
9. Luge peptides - rheumatoid,
10. neuropeptides, fertility peptides, urinary peptides, pain, ophthalmology, are widely used.
Clinically confirmed: peptide drugs widely used in hospitals, the effect is better than traditional drugs but the price is high, not within the scope of Medicare reimbursement.
