A RESEARCH 

A medicine usually consists of a multiple therapy drug which leads to several side effects as a result of its heavy dosage. But if a medicine with a single therapy drug is provided it would be more effective leading to no side effects.

A teacher by profession Dr Thirumagal B is researching for a medicine that would be effective over the bacteria’s

responsible for cough and cold. Presently the medicines with high dosage are sold in the market leading to various side effects but with the help of this research it would be easy to have a medicine that would consist of a single drug dose.

Thirumagal B said that,” The dosage of the medicine has to be calculated yet as the research is half way through. The research is performed over a raw drug which would be further purified. The intention behind the research is to avoid the side effects that occur as a result of high dose of medicines. I have no commercial interest but the research would provide a medicine that is effective over micro organisms.”

Firstly a research over first generation antibiotics was performed and then complex with metals. This increased the anti bacterial activity with two gram negative bacteria’s which was found to be ineffective using original drug.

The idea came to her as she found that other medicines lead to side effects like hair loss and other diseases. The research would help to find out a medicine that would be effective with a single therapy drug and would lead to no side effects.

The research is being performed by her under the guidance of Dr Suman Malik, Sadhu Vaswani College who is assistant professor and department head. Since, Thirumagal B does not has any commercial interest therefore the results of the research would be handed over to RNA which would further provide a final form top the research in the form of a medicine. Presently, the stages of research are being published through the medium of research journals and once the research results are found positive RNA would form the medicine.
