The drug administration recommends stockpiling prevention and control drugs in some pharmacies: powerless

The Food and Drug Administration recommends that pharmacies reserve appropriate amounts of prevention and control drugs and commonly used drugs.
Some pharmacies believe that it is "a wise move", and some pharmacies say that they are "powerless".
.
.
The Drug Administration recommends that pharmacies do a good job of stockpiling.
On April 14, Jiangxi Drug Administration The Bureau issued the "Notice on Comprehensively Strengthening the Quality Management of New Coronary Virus Pneumonia Treatment Drugs" (hereinafter referred to as the "Notice")
.
In response to the epidemic and related drug management work, the "Notice" emphasizes three aspects - drug quality and safety, drug market order, and recommends that pharmacies make appropriate preliminary reserves
.
The "Notice" pointed out that pharmacies are "a legal channel for drug circulation and a 'reservoir' for the guarantee of drug supply".
During the critical period of repeated epidemic prevention and control, ensuring the effective supply of drugs and meeting the people's medication needs is the province's pharmacy.
obligations and responsibilities
.
In addition, risk factors such as traffic control during the epidemic may also cause drug manufacturers and drug distributors to supply untimely supplies
.
To this end, the Food and Drug Administration recommends that pharmacies, based on their actual capabilities, investigate the supply and demand of the drug market, and reserve appropriate amounts of prevention and control drugs and commonly used drugs to ensure that various drugs are kept in stock during the epidemic
.
"It is a wise move to stockpile commonly used drugs" After the "Notice" was issued, Cyberblue-pharmacy managers consulted local pharmacies, but they had different opinions
.
Meng Xuping is the quality management director of a small chain in Ganzhou, Jiangxi.
In his eyes, the content mentioned in the "Notice" "seems nothing special", because the pharmacies he is in charge of will adjust their reserves according to market dynamics.
Meng Xuping said: "The epidemic has This has been required for several years, and routine operations
.
" If Jiangxi's drug supply and logistics are blocked due to the epidemic like Shanghai, Meng Xuping estimates that the prevention and control drugs and commonly used drugs he has stored in the store can still be sold normally for about a month
.
Some pharmacies are a little hesitant about the "drug reserve" mentioned in the "Notice"
.
Li Guangchang is a licensed pharmacist in a single pharmacy in Ganzhou, Jiangxi Province.
He believes that stockpiling medicines needs to be considered on a case-by-case basis.

.
"To be honest, if there is a yellow code in our county, the four types of medicines in the pharmacy cannot be sold
.
" Recalling the four types of medicines that had expired in the store, Li Guangchang said: "The prevention and control supplies that the pharmacy can store are disinfectants and masks.
As for other categories
of commonly used drugs, Li Guangchang said: "Considering the risk of suppliers being blocked due to the epidemic, it is also wise for pharmacies to stock up on commonly used drugs in a timely manner
.
" The bureau has positioned pharmacies as a legal channel for drug circulation and a "reservoir" for guaranteeing drug supply.
It not only emphasizes the status and role of pharmacies, but also hopes that pharmacies can play their own role in the epidemic
.
However, although some pharmacists have a sincere heart to exert their value, they are difficult to respond due to practical reasons
.
Zou Xiaoye is the owner of a single pharmacy in a county in Yichun, Jiangxi.
She told Cyberland, the pharmacy manager, that she has been in the business for nearly 20 years, and she has always been satisfied and proud of being able to help customers, "especially in rural areas, customers often praise I, also gave me a lot of confidence
.
" But after the epidemic began, her pharmacy suffered a heavy blow-there were only a handful of customers entering the store every day, and the single-day turnover was less than half of the previous one, and even only 10% when it was low.
Zou Xiaoye said: "Since the epidemic, it has been It’s just that the amount of loss varies every month
.
” “The store’s turnover has only been more than 100 yuan these days
.
” She said, “Now I don’t count the labor costs, I think about the 30,000 store rent and the water, electricity and miscellaneous expenses in the store every day.
It's just a heart attack
.
" In addition to the many expired drugs, Zou Xiaoye said that he "doesn't dare to do drug storage
.
" Therefore, it is "powerless" for Zou Xiaoye to do a good job in drug storage and become a "reservoir" for drug supply
.
Despite the harsh environment and difficult survival, there are still a group of tenacious pharmacists
.
Zou Xiaoye told Cyberland-Pharmacy Manager: "I haven't changed my job since I graduated, and I have been sticking to the pharmacy.
Although I haven't achieved much, I can really help my customers in a small job.
I feel very inside.
I am happy, and I especially like my work
.
" Wang Xiaobo wrote in "I greet the dawn on a desert island": "If I can shine, I don't have to be afraid of the dark
.
If I am so beautiful, then all fears can disappear
.
"Zou Xiaoye is one of the pharmacists who worked hard to shine under the epidemic, but the "darkness" brought by the epidemic should not only be illuminated by themselves.
The drug administration and city supervision departments may be more scientific and rational in prevention and control, and work together with the pharmacy staff.
Push aside the dark clouds and welcome the dawn
