Yesterday's CCTV News revealed that Anhui Traditional Chinese medicine market, the capital of medicine, has increased the weight of medicinal materials, dyed them, taken maternity leave and sold illegal medicinal materials According to the reporter, about 90% of the medicinal materials in Nanjing market come from Bozhou So, how is the market of traditional Chinese medicine in Nanjing? Yesterday, a reporter from Jiangnan times interviewed Nanjing pharmaceutical regulatory bureau and relevant experts, and visited the current situation of Chinese herbal medicines in Nanjing market CCTV: Bozhou traditional Chinese medicine is "totally different" according to CCTV, in Bozhou traditional Chinese medicine market, not only the price of cinnabar, red powder, cantharis, and the price of myrtle, which are forbidden to be sold by the state, but also the phenomenon of illegally manufacturing and selling weight-added medicine is very common, involving seahorse price, Hailong, scorpion price, Purple River car price, Agkistrodon and other varieties At first, the price of the Ziheche, which was only 40 or 50 grams, reached more than 100 grams after weight increase, while the weight of the Agkistrodon after weight increase also increased several times, but the price was much cheaper than the genuine one In addition to the illegal weight gain, it is also very common to use sulfur price fumigated herbs in the market These yams, Gastrodia elata, Paeonia alba and Fritillaria, which are called "beat sulfur", are not only fair in appearance, but also much cheaper than "sulfur free" herbs As for the harmfulness of the herbs smoked at the sulfur price, the traders also said bluntly: "I once saw a rat smoked to death when I gave the medicine the sulfur price." Nanjing: more than 90% of Chinese herbal medicines are from Bozhou, the capital of medicine, according to a senior person who has been engaged in traditional Chinese medicine research for many years "However, the purchase control in Nanjing is relatively strict At present, we haven't found any serious illegal behaviors of Nanjing traditional Chinese medicine vendors." Gao Qiang, director of the drug safety supervision office of Nanjing food and drug administration, said that although a considerable part of the Chinese herbal medicines in Nanjing market come from Bozhou, not all the herbal medicines in Bozhou market have problems "Because Bozhou's medicine market is a mixture of good and bad, we have been very strict in the supervision of Bozhou's medicine." Gao Qiang said that the Nanjing Municipal Drug Administration will carry out sampling inspection on drug manufacturers, suppliers, hospitals and pharmacies every year Next, Nanjing will continue to carry out investigation according to the deployment of the State Drug Administration to ensure that the Chinese herbal medicines on the market are qualified and legal Expert: the supervision of drug counterfeiting needs to be improved "Although the state has formulated relatively perfect laws and regulations on the drug market, the actual supervision of drug counterfeiting needs to be improved." An expert from Nanjing University of traditional Chinese medicine told reporters that the main way to make fake traditional Chinese medicine in the market is as follows: firstly, the "illegal products" are added into the traditional Chinese medicine to achieve the effect of "weight increase" The "illegal products" include some low-cost medicines whose appearance is similar to that of the original ones, which are forbidden to be added; secondly, the color of the medicines made by this way is smoked with sulfur price It will be very good-looking, and it is not easy to grow insects, so it is often used for precious medicinal materials, so that they will not get moldy due to water; finally, illegal traders will return some of the extracted medicinal materials to the market for sale, such medicinal materials have been extracted with effective ingredients, and there is no healing effect at all Industry insiders disclosed to reporters that the rhizome of traditional Chinese medicine may be dyed, and the prices of safflower, Scutellaria, Typhae, mume and Schisandra are quite serious The reporter visited many drugstores in Nanjing and found that the price of Astragalus is the same One drugstore sells 66.5 yuan per Jin, but the other only sells yuan per Jin.
