    It is understood that since the beginning of this year, Shanxi Pharmaceutical Equipment Center has issued several notices of price reduction
    .

    On July 26, the Shanxi Provincial Pharmaceutical Equipment Centralized Bidding and Purchasing Network issued the "Shanxi Province Notice on Adjusting the Online Drug Prices of 7 Enterprises including Guangdong Dongguang Pharmaceutical Co.

    Recently, in addition to Shanxi Province, Sichuan, Heilongjiang and other places have also intensively issued notices of drug price reductions.
    From the perspective of price reductions, many varieties have dropped by more than 90%
    .

    For example, the "Notice on Publicizing the Price Reduction of Some Drugs" issued by the Sichuan Provincial Pharmaceutical Equipment Centralized Purchasing and Pharmaceutical Price Supervision Platform recently showed that 171 batches of products from 142 pharmaceutical companies adjusted their prices.

    A variety of heavyweight varieties
    .

    Among them, Liuwei Dihuang Pills (film-coated pills) and other medical insurance drugs dropped by more than 90%
    .

       In addition to domestic pharmaceutical companies, in fact, since this year, many original research drugs have also joined the team of active price reduction
    .

    In June, Shandong Pharmaceutical Equipment Centralized Procurement Platform issued a notice that Roche voluntarily lowered the price of Risprolan, a rare disease drug for spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), and the online price dropped to 14,500 yuan per bottle
    .

    In the same month, Roche Pharmaceuticals also announced a reduction in the price of Hercelite (trastuzumab for injection), after the price adjustment, the price of 100 mg is 8,340 yuan, and the price of 160 mg is 11,951.
    63 yuan
    .

       It is generally believed in the industry that there are continuous drug price reductions, mainly due to the normalization and intensification of the centralized and intensive procurement of drugs from the state to local governments, urging enterprises to actively adjust prices, and squeezing the space for artificially high drug prices
    .

    In the National Medical Insurance Bureau, it is clear that during the "14th Five-Year Plan" period, the centralized procurement of medicines and medical consumables will be increased, and centralized procurement will become the dominant mode.
    Under the background of the centralized procurement scope of medical consumables, more medicines and consumables will also usher in the fate of price reduction
