Drug prices will come down before the "dead cycle" it? – Pharmaceutica

October 2, the industry long-awaited debut price of essential drugs. And the retail price of existing government regulations than about 45% of drug price cuts, an average reduction of 12%, the new price will be implemented since October 22.

Ate drugs on the bitterness of the consumers, the natural decline in drug prices is a good thing. To Huatuozaizao pill, for example, size 120g, 45.3 yuan before the adjustment, the adjusted 44.7 yuan. Cephalosporin Ampicillin capsules, specifications 125mg * 10, before adjustment 3.2 yuan, 1.8 yuan after adjustment. Amoxicillin, specifications 250mg * 20, before adjustment 7.3 yuan, 6.2 yuan after adjustment.

Addition, there are media reports, because of the government's primary health care and health institutions of zero slip Sell Essential medicines, consumers do not have to pay 15% of the original fare to bear part, consumers to purchase some of the basic drugs cheaper than the original three percent or so, and reimbursement will be significantly larger than other drugs.

Question is, "really drop it? Down several times before is not it? Seemed to be Guia, cheap medicine hospitals and pharmacies do not have ah." Chaoyang District, Beijing approximately 70-year-old Aunt Wang Wen Wei Po an interview with some doubts.

Aunt Wang is not the case questions. Drug prices is not the first, it is disappointing that, we often notice lower prices after the release of the relevant departments, in accordance with the provisions of cheaper drugs, will be "disappeared", a phenomenon traditionally known as the "price cuts dead." Price reduction?? Disappear?? The emergence of new drugs?? Go any lower?? Then disappear circular motion, is an open secret in the industry.

However, vertical and horizontal management consulting group in North Medicine Health Information Centre general manager, pharmacist Fan Xingdong eyes, "I think the consumer should be able to get benefits." Fan Xingdong interview with confidence.

Fan Xingdong reason is: "one, now very strict drug approval, in the past by way of approval of new drugs has been basically impossible to avoid a price reduction; Second, if the market is huge, even if the lower prices, companies continue to produce the driving force of essential medicines will continue to exist, there is a certain profit margin business; Third, many pharmaceutical companies would like to take this product into the essential medicines list for the opportunity to address the pervasive issue of capacity is not saturated, basically will not stop the production of essential medicines. "

Addition Fan Xingdong said that before the decline in drug prices has not been effectively implemented, one of the reasons for the rate of drug price cuts too much, pharmaceutical companies can not afford. "The lower rate is reasonable, I feel companies can afford." Learned, Development and Reform Commission, taking into account the enthusiasm of enterprises related to drugs, medical security level and the people can afford the retail prices, about 49% of the species prices not adjusted to the current price of implementation; about 6% of the varieties suitable to improve the price.

But consumers can obtain drug price cuts in hospital benefits, or cause for concern. According to regulations, essential medicines list mainly for primary and rural health care market, "the guide price was announced, the impact of the hospital should not be too much. Now or in medicine support hospital doctors, together with public institutions to the full implementation of performance management , a doctor's prescription to use basic drugs may not be very active, consumers receive benefits from the hospital, I am afraid to play some discount. "Fanxing Dong said.

Fanxing Dong's proposal is that if consumers feel that a doctor prescribed the medication is too expensive, or limited number of essential drugs, may have to go to pharmacy to buy essential medicines. In fact, before the state has provided that the generic drugs must be used, people with some knowledge of drugs people can enjoy the benefits brought about by lower prices.
, Of course, the prices of essential drugs issued guidance does not mean expensive medical problems "at once", "establishment of a national essential drug system is a systematic, comprehensive package of measures, the overall advance in order to be effective, the masses could benefit.
