IMHO, DIY medication would benefit from a blend of biology and organic chemistry. Plants, fungi and recombinant bacteria can produce plenty of complex organic molecules that are biologically active for free. Then harvesting, isolating, and doing final modifications would be much less difficult than producing medications from scratch.
