2013 Chinese medicine meets "quality gate"

In 2013, the safety of traditional Chinese medicine has become a hot topic Doping, weight gain, dyeing, filling with them, and heavy metals exceeding the standard are all unavoidable words in the field of traditional Chinese medicine in 2013 In the lament of the industry that there are good doctors but not good drugs, the State Food and Drug Administration began to fight hard in the middle of this year to regulate the market of traditional Chinese medicine; drugs are life-threatening, and the society expects traditional Chinese medicine to go out of the safety door as soon as possible Industry view: there are problems in every link of the industry chain In the industry chain of traditional Chinese medicine, people often point to the peddlers who buy traditional Chinese medicine from pharmaceutical farmers first when they talk about the fake and inferior traditional Chinese medicine However, the peddlers of traditional Chinese medicine in Bozhou, Anhui Province say very directly: "demand decides supply, and if there is one, there is one If there are hospitals, clinics and pharmaceutical factories, there are buyers who buy fake and inferior traditional Chinese medicine, there are sellers." Chen qiguang, executive director of the research group on the situation of traditional Chinese medicine in Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, believes that this is related to the over marketization or improper marketization of Chinese medicine Some brand listed companies in order to take advantage in the bidding to reduce the drug price, low price can only buy low-grade Chinese herbal medicine Some small and medium-sized enterprises buy fake medicines for profit Which link in the industrial chain of traditional Chinese medicine has gone wrong? According to Chen Hongyan, who has worked in the pharmaceutical retail industry for many years, there are problems in every link From pharmaceutical farmers, drug dealers, Yinpian factories or patent medicine factories to hospitals or pharmacies, every link wants to purchase at a low price to maximize gross profit Each link has specific detection tools and means, mainly poor implementation At last, we go to the purchase link of hospitals and pharmacies, only to see the paper copy materials such as approval qualification Therefore, it is very important to supervise every link of pharmaceutical farmers, drug dealers, Yinpian factories or patent medicine factories It is not only drug farmers but also drug dealers in drug distribution centers who adulterate traditional Chinese medicine Only spot check will be done when the Decoction Pieces Factory or the patent medicine factory purchases As long as the price is low, problems such as dyeing and weight gain will not be seen The multi department management mode of inquiry and pulse control needs new exploration Can the unsafe activities of traditional Chinese medicine be stopped? How to manage the Chinese herbal medicines? On July 17, relevant persons in charge of the State Food and Drug Administration disclosed that it is necessary to jointly launch the market renovation of traditional Chinese medicine with the Ministry of industry and information technology, the Ministry of Commerce and other eight departments Some experts in the industry pointed out that the root of the problem of traditional Chinese medicine lies in that the relevant functional departments do not specifically manage the cultivation of traditional Chinese medicine Wu Bin, executive vice president of China Medicine (600056, Guba) Business Association, said: "the Ministry of agriculture should have a special organization to manage the cultivation of traditional Chinese medicine, but it has not yet The Academy of Agricultural Sciences has spent a lot of time, energy and money on the cultivation of crop varieties, but not on the cultivation of traditional Chinese medicine " In the Ministry of industry and information technology, there is a department of consumer goods industry, which is responsible for the management of supporting projects for the production of traditional Chinese medicine "The Chinese Academy of traditional Chinese medicine has some major projects related to the cultivation of traditional Chinese medicine, and the Ministry of science and technology will support and promote the completion of them," said the relevant director of the Ministry of science and technology of the people's Republic of China on which to manage the cultivation of traditional Chinese medicine The Ministry of science and technology does not have a special department to take charge of the issue of the planting norms of traditional Chinese medicine " The State Administration of traditional Chinese medicine manages the technical problems such as the formula of traditional Chinese medicine, and the State Food and drug administration supervises the "market" of traditional Chinese medicine The State Administration for Industry and Commerce administers the sale of traditional Chinese medicine products and finds out the fine of fake and inferior products These measures can not crack down on the source of planting Industry insiders believe that the quality problems of traditional Chinese medicine need to be managed jointly by multiple departments, and how to coordinate and cooperate with each other among all departments needs to be explored Beijing Business Daily reporter Liu Yali Xia Shanshan / Wen Jia Cong / cartoon event replay in February, Hong Kong Health Department and Macao Health Bureau ordered drug importers to recover five Chinese patent medicines of Yunnan Baiyao (000538, Guba), saying that the samples of the Chinese patent medicines were found to contain unidentified aconitine Later, Yunnan Baiyao issued a statement acknowledging that the formula of Yunnan Baiyao contains aconitine, but the toxicity has been eliminated or weakened through the process In March, the CCTV "half an hour of economy" revealed that the product quality of Weic Yinqiao tablet produced by Guangxi Yingkang Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of Guangyao group, had problems: replacing the crown of shanyinhua with the stem of shanyinhua, and shanyinhua was fumigated with industrial sulfur, containing highly toxic arsenic and mercury residues In May, the Hong Kong Department of Health issued a notice that a number of Tongrentang (600085, Guba) "jianti wubu pills" were found to contain excessive mercury (mercury) Subsequently, the content of cinnabar in niuhuangqianjin powder and xiaoerzhibao pill of Tongrentang was detected to be 17.3% and 0.72%, respectively The former exceeded the mainland standard and the latter was far beyond the Hong Kong standard In July, CCTV exposed the phenomenon of adulteration, weight gain and serious dyeing of traditional Chinese medicine in Bozhou market The State Food and Drug Administration and 17 centralized specialized markets of traditional Chinese medicine were interviewed to clean up the market of traditional Chinese medicine In October, the State Food and Drug Administration sampled some pieces of Chinese herbal medicines produced, operated or used by relevant units in Guangdong, Anhui, Gansu and Sichuan provinces The inspection results showed that there were 22 batches of Honghua, yanhusuo and xihonghua with dyeing problems.
