Daniel Kraft TED Salon: Optum (transcript)
The pharmacy of the future? Personalized pills, 3D printed at home
Summary
The speaker tells us that We live in a medication nation which is United State, though, I think that Japan also deserves that.
Japanese people love taking medicines and Doctors give them a lot of medicines to get much money. Thus Doctors can say that patients ask the doctor want to give medicines and Japanese patients believe that doctors are quite right. Japanese people don't think about the number of too many pills, side effects and our much money is used.
However, those are dangerous. The number of too many pills and side effects caused by medicines kill patients more than diseases. Countries money that means our taxes are used and a few medicines' companies get a lot of benefits.
The speaker who is a doctor study about 3D printer can print medicines at each patient's home. It can avoid giving too many medicines because by helping the computer, wearing a small patch can calculate your proper dose.
It's important to hope technology developing and to know about taking medicines too much. If we don't do that, there is no better pharmacy of the future and medicines don't lead us to our health.
