    [Pharmaceutical Network Industry News] People need to take medicine when they are sick, but for some patients, especially those with chronic diseases, the cost of taking medicine for a long time is a lot of expenses
    .

    In recent years, with the advancement of new medical reform policies such as centralized procurement and medical insurance, a large number of high-quality and low-cost drugs have been included, and the prices have been greatly reduced, effectively reducing the burden of drug costs for patients
    .

    Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular disease is a common disease that seriously threatens the health of human beings, especially the middle-aged and elderly people over 50 years old, with a large number of patients
    .

    According to the "China Cardiovascular Disease Report 2018" released by the National Cardiovascular Disease Center, the number of patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases in China is as high as nearly 300 million

    Such patients require lifelong treatment and management, have a huge demand for related drugs, and carry a heavy burden of disease
    .

    The price reduction of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular drugs has attracted the attention of the majority of patients
    .

    In order to more effectively promote the standardized management of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and reduce the economic burden of the disease, relevant departments and related pharmaceutical companies have taken a series of measures in recent years.
    There is no shortage of imported drugs
    .

       For example, in the 4+7 expanded scope of centralized procurement, Sanofi's classic antihypertensive drug irbesartan and hydrochlorothiazide tablets in the field of chronic diseases 150mg+12.
    5mg in 7 pieces, the winning bid price in the centralized procurement expansion was adjusted to 7.
    6 yuan, a drop of about 60%.
    The selected regions include Guizhou, Hainan, Shandong, Hubei, Xinjiang (including the Corps), Sichuan, Shanxi, and Heilongjiang
    .

    Patients with cerebrovascular diseases in relevant areas can use these two classic original research drugs at reduced prices in hospitals, chain pharmacies and other channels to reduce the burden of drug costs
    .

    81 yuan, a drop of as much as 70%
    .

    Ningxia, Shandong, Guangdong, Hunan, Jiangxi, Shanxi, Inner Mongolia and Guizhou were selected as the winning bidders for the drug
    .

       Bristol-Myers Squibb's antihypertensive drug Fosinopril Sodium Tablets was also selected in the expansion of centralized procurement.

    2 yuan per box; Beijing Biopharmaceuticals in 14-tablet varieties, with a winning price of 27.
    02 yuan per box
    .

       At present, the national procurement of medicines has reached the sixth round (insulin) special project, and the seventh round of centralized procurement is also progressing
    .

    Judging from the results of the first five rounds of centralized collection, there are not a few products selected for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular drugs
    .

    According to incomplete statistics in the industry, only in terms of hypertension treatment drugs, 19 varieties of drugs won the bid in the first 5 rounds of centralized procurement, and there are many drugs that have dropped again and again
    .
