After watching this film I was fascinated by drugs and pharmacy

It turns out that medicine is such a sexy thing.

I am a practitioner in the pharmaceutical industry. Although I do neither business nor production or research, I am mixed in this industry after all. The drug business feeds me.

I usually never take medicine. But it cannot be said that there is no sick time. Such as gluttony. It brings stomach discomfort, the most important thing is that when faced with food, I can't control my impulse and put my reason aside.

Medicines are an invention to help us. Drugs are silent, but in mysterious ways that we don't understand, they participate in physical, even mental, and psychological warfare. What role does it play?

When I was a kid I liked to get some glass bottles and jars pretending to be experimenting, alchemy, mixing one substance with another, and then--strange, unexpected things happened, creating new ones. unknown substance.

Also, I don't believe in the foundations and assumptions of modern medicine. But the pathology is also really interesting.

In short, if you don't know about Pfizer, it's really a pity. Not only because it can make money, but also because it is so sexy, maybe because of the mysterious and intimate relationship between medicine and our body and mind. Daoists also refine alchemy.

All in all, this movie came at the right time for me. Don't talk about love, just talk about elixir. We don't understand love. But you can learn a little about medicine. Very interesting.

Love & Other Drugs quotes

  • Jamie Randall: [Last lines] I used to worry a lot about who I'd be when I grew up. You know, like how much money I'd make or, umm, like some day I'd become some big deal. Sometimes, the thing you want most doesn't happen. And sometimes, the thing you never expect does. Like giving up my job in Chicago and everything and deciding to stay and apply to med school. I don't know. You meet thousands of people and none of them really touch you. And then you meet one person and your life is changed... forever.

  • California Man: Parkinson's, right?

    Jamie Randall: Oh, no. No.

    California Man: No, your wife.

    Jamie Randall: Girlfriend. Stage One.

    California Man: Good days and bad days, huh?

    Jamie Randall: Mostly good days. You?

    California Man: Wife. Since '73. Stage Four.

    Jamie Randall: You got any advice?

    California Man: You don't need my advice.

    Jamie Randall: Come on. I'm very trainable.

    California Man: My advice is to go upstairs, pack your bags, and leave a nice note. Find yourself a healthy woman. I love my wife. I do. But I wouldn't do it over again. The thing nobody tells you, this disease will steal everything you love in her. Her body, her smile, her mind. Sooner or later, she'll lose motor control. Eventually, she won't even be able to dress herself. Then, the fun really begins. Cleaning up her shit. Frozen face. Dementia. It's not a disease, it's a Russian novel.
