Generic weird...

Who was it that paved the way for generic drugs is probably a story from India. It’s seem it’s a story of quakery. We need to go back in time to 1922 India. There was a man named Upendranath Brahmachari also known as “UN” Brahmachari who introduced questioned methods doing “medicine”. He is said to have came up with a synthesied medicine of Urea Stibamine. It said to be the first  Allophathic drug discovered in India. So called medicine designed by Dr. UN. “Urea stibamine”, Whats that? Urea is found in the urine from mammals. Stibarmine is whats according to the Dr an amorphous powder fairly soluble in water. The word “Stibamine” according some source by itself does not and cannot indicate to chemist the presence of phenyl and sodium in the composition of the compound called by that name. (Could it thou be that Dr.UN did put sodium in some kind urine and then came up with a probably useless “medicine” he then had done?) Further on some source mean that Dr. Brahmachari’s contention was that in what is called by him “stibamine”, there is sodium which is represented by the symbol Na but when “Urea Stibamine”, i.e., the compound which Dr. Brahmachari claims as a cure for Kala-azar (Black Fever), is produced, sodium does not enter into its composition. To try to explain what the Dr meant is just what happened with medicine science. Something made it different when you make synthesis. According to a source is “Urea Stibamine” still remained a compound with no definitely known and agreed chemical formula. Even thou if a formula could have been worked out, it doesn’t mean understand. Try do a chemical formula of urine. This is organic and not understood by chemists with a formula. Generic of urine, how do a chemists then make that? Chemists can’t but can try to do something similar.

Whats important to understand is when medicine begins to be explained by chemistry and how they then did? How can substances be explained to be the same. The Indian Dr did what he did and later became the head of the department of biochemistry in Calcutta, India.
