[China Pharmaceutical network industry news] recently, an enterprise in the traditional Chinese medicine industry responded to the case of expired honey: all suspected illegal products have been sealed up, and solemnly apologized to all consumers Many netizens commented that "the punishment is the punishment, the punishment should be severe, and the punishment should be vigorous!" Nowadays, the phenomenon of adulteration and counterfeiting appears frequently in the market, from what people wear and use to what they eat, and even drugs, which makes consumers angry This is also a wake-up call for food and drug enterprises closely related to people's health They must be able to live up to the conscience of the world, not fake, tell the truth, and be responsible for the integrity of consumers Honey can also be adulterated? Results alert food and drug companies (source: chinapharma Com) in 2018, the food and Drug Administration of all provinces issued a notice on drug quality, involving a large number of substandard drugs and counterfeit drugs Among them, the unqualified drugs include unqualified items such as properties, water content, content determination, difference in loading capacity, weight difference, etc For example, in October this year, Jiangxi food and Drug Administration issued a notice that there were 14 batches of substandard cow hide ingredients According to the introduction, the main ingredient of cow hide is the original ingredient of cow hide For example, if cow hide component is detected in donkey hide gelatin, it indicates that cow hide may be used to replace donkey hide partially or completely in the production process of donkey hide gelatin Suspected adulteration will directly affect the quality and efficacy of drugs The author has learned that in order to solve the problem of "adulteration and falsification" of drugs and give consumers an account, China has taken a series of effective measures to crack down on illegal and criminal acts, such as the introduction of new department law, the revision of criminal law, the introduction of relevant judicial interpretation, and the increase of food and drug safety inspection In recent years, the overall situation of food and drug safety has been alleviated However, at present, the efficiency of investigation and punishment by the regulatory authorities needs to be improved; the corresponding punishment is still insufficient, and the relevant laws and regulations need to be further improved For example, from the perspective of the well-known traditional Chinese medicine industry, due to the lack of quality standards, it is difficult to improve the quality of traditional Chinese medicine for a long time, and problems such as adulteration, forgery, dyeing and so on occur from time to time In order to solve the problem of adulteration and counterfeiting of traditional Chinese medicine and standardize the reasonable competition in the market, the relevant regulatory authorities continued to increase the supervision of large and medium-sized medicine and pieces of decoction, and the qualified rate of sampling increased from 64% in 2013 to 84% in 2017 According to industry data, in 2017, a total of 64102 batches of Chinese herbal medicines and pieces were sampled, with a qualified rate of 84%, up 20 percentage points from 64% in 2013 It can be seen that strengthening supervision is conducive to deterring the compliance production of traditional Chinese medicine enterprises and preventing adulteration and forgery In addition, in order to improve the quality of traditional Chinese medicine, China is trying to strengthen the methods of supervision, identification and identification of traditional Chinese medicine products According to the high, medium and low grades, traditional Chinese medicine is divided to promote the traditional Chinese medicine industry to plant, produce and sell good drugs For example, recently, the announcement of the review conclusion of "specification grade of Chinese medicinal materials (226 kinds)" issued by the Chinese society of traditional Chinese medicine marks the release of the series standards of specification grade of Chinese medicinal materials, which is conducive to further standardizing the market circulation order of Chinese medicinal materials, reasonably guiding the production of Chinese medicinal materials, and promoting high prices Experts also pointed out that Chinese medicine enterprises should strictly implement the provisions of national pharmacopoeia and local Chinese medicine processing specifications, strengthen the research of production technology and mechanical equipment of Chinese herbal pieces, so as to continuously improve the quality of Chinese herbal pieces In general, no matter food or medicine closely related to human health, its quality and safety hazards can not be ignored As the person in charge of production, the production enterprise must take the corresponding responsibility, produce qualified products, ensure the quality and safety of products, and be responsible for consumers, so as to go further and further in the market.
