On Nanjing East Road, there are not many customers in the milk powder counters of the first medicine store Oriental Network, June 17 news: According to the Youth Daily, from the end of this month, Shanghai will choose a number of better-managed pharmacies to carry out a pilot: selling milk powder in a drug-selling model This means that in the future infant formula and medicine will be "equaltreatment", milk powder purchase, sales, inventory are included in the unified strict regulatory system milk powder prices are similar to supermarkets
but the actual sales situation is not ideal
in fact, since last year, a small number of pharmacies have begun to sell milk powder At a large pharmacy on Pudong Deping Road, advertisements with discounts on milk powder can be seen at the door The eye-catching place at the door is a children's formula milk powder counter The counters are filled with several brands of milk powder, the supply is sufficient, but every day to buy few people "We have been selling milk powder for some time, but there are still a lot of people who don't know that we have milk powder to sell in pharmacies "One staff member said that the sales of milk powder in the store was not ideal on the second floor of Shanghai's first medical store on Nanjing Road pedestrian street, youth reporters saw several infant formula milk powder sales counters, where there are more brands of milk powder, such as Heshengyuan, Abbott, Nestle, Xibao and so on However, within 20 minutes of the interview, the youth newspaper reporter did not see a customer who came to buy milk powder Youth Daily reporter on the price of milk powder to compare, found that the price of milk powder in the pharmacy and supermarkets and baby shops prices are basically the same Inside the pharmacy, a co-baby formula is priced at 238 yuan, the same as the sale price of a baby shop Some milk powders, such as Abbott, are also priced in the same way as supermarkets "The reason why the public do not come to the pharmacy to buy milk powder, mainly or living habits have a relationship, more mothers like to buy foreign milk powder online They think foreign milk powder is cheap and more reassuring in quality "Pharmacy staff Xiao Zhang analysis want to sell milk powder has a threshold
Food and drug supervision can monitor the purchase, inventory these pharmacies have been opened to sell milk powder, but not into a similar drug of strict supervision and system, and in the near future, the sale of infant formula milk powder in Shanghai pharmacies will be sold in full accordance with the drug model At present, the relevant departments are screening more than two years have not occurred food drug accidents of pharmacies, included in the pilot pharmacy to sell drug model to operate infant formula milk powder yesterday afternoon, the youth newspaper reporter came to the new gate road on the Big Pharmacy, a staff member surnamed Zhang said that last week the relevant person in charge of the store has been informed that soon in the pharmacy set up a "baby formula special area", the pharmacy is currently doing active preparations , the pilot drugstore will set up a prominent "baby formula special area", the public want to buy milk powder, sweep the qr code, soon on the computer screen will show the milk powder traceable information "
the purchase, sale and inventory of drug , the food and drug regulatory departments can monitor according to their platform Our pharmacy is a chain, so there is no need to go outside to purchase, the purchase channel is absolutely protected, after the mother and child varieties and drug supervision is exactly the same, the public can be very assured to use A pharmacy worker said the city's food and drug regulatory department said there is a retail drug remote monitoring system, the regulatory authorities can monitor the drugstore's infant formula milk powder in real time, sales and inventory For pharmacies that have already started selling, they can continue to sell as long as they have a circulation license, but if they are not on the pilot, they will not be sold for the time being as drugs the of the price of milk powder is more important than the price of milk powder safety
"milk powder into the pharmacy, the quality is certainly more reassuring, but the price also let us pay attention." "In the interview, many people want the price of milk powder in pharmacies to come down it is learned that the milk powder into the pharmacy, products are directly from the factory to supply pharmacies, a lot less links By reason, the retail price of milk powder sold in pharmacies is likely to fall However, according to industry sources, the current retail price of pharmacies and supermarket channels, but also do not rule out some promotional activities "I hope that we will not use too much government resources, maintain the principle of fair competition, and maintain existing market channels." "
" milk powder does not enter the pharmacy is not important, it is important to fundamentally and truly solve the problem of trust in domestic milk powder "An industry analysis, milk powder safety accidents, rarely in the sales link, the vast majority is in the production process of the problem Also, the pharmacy is only the organization of the sale of milk powder, whether it has its own ability to identify the quality of milk powder, qualified or not? This is also worth discussing "How to play the role of the government in the traceability and tracking of milk powder after-sales service is the most important thing we should pay attention to in the future (Edit: Hutchison website)
