    [China Pharmaceutical network industry trends] on February 28, foci pharmaceutical announced that according to the pharmaceutical production cost and market demand, it was decided to comprehensively raise the price of more than 100 products of concentrated pills, honey pills, water pills, oral liquids, gels, granules, tablets and other dosage forms from March 1, 2018 The average ex factory price of the above products will be increased by 17.6%, and the retail price will be adjusted accordingly As a foci pharmaceutical company with rich production experience, its main business is the production, processing and sales of Chinese patent medicine, western medicine and traditional Chinese medicine The company's main products include Liuwei Dihuang pill, Xiaoyao Pill, Xiangsha Yangwei pill, Shenrong Guben Huanshao pill and other series of Chinese patent medicine and big health products such as donkey hide gelatin and donkey hide gelatin cake So, is the price increase of more than 100 traditional Chinese medicine products caused by the company's sudden decision or market trend or other factors? It is understood that in recent years, with the improvement of the people's healthy living standard, the demand for the use of tonic and medicine food homologous herbs is also increasing year by year, and the situation of short supply leads to the price adjustment of many TCM products in the market According to the insiders, in 2017, the growth of traditional Chinese medicine was mainly due to tonics, medicines and foods of the same origin, precious herbs, genuine herbs, etc For example, in recent years, whether Chinese traditional health care product donkey hide gelatin is "boiled donkey hide" has once again become the focus of public opinion However, the controversy about the efficacy of donkey hide gelatin seems to have never stopped At the end of January, dong'a gum released a new round of price increase notice, and decided to adjust the retail price of 250g dong'a gum to 1499 yuan and the retail price of 48 pieces of compound gum paste to 499 yuan by March 20, 2018 In November 2017, dong'a Ejiao announced to increase the ex factory price of Ejiao by 10% "When it comes to Ejiao, the price increase in recent years is particularly obvious From 1500 yuan / kg in 2016 to 1800 yuan / kg, up 300 yuan / kg.. "Said some suppliers It can be predicted that the price rise of donkey hide gelatin will continue in the future In addition to the above mentioned price rise of traditional Chinese medicine products, the familiar Banlangen also has consumer feedback that its price rose rapidly from more than 6 yuan to 8 yuan during the influenza period More pharmaceutical companies said that many of the Chinese patent medicines for cold treatment and heat clearing and detoxification are out of stock due to shortage of raw materials and rising prices From the point of view of reasons, the factors of price increase of Chinese herbal medicine can be divided into several points Unreasonable use of resources and disorderly logging lead to sharp reduction of production; unscientific control of the source leads to the rise of raw materials and labor costs; the psychological structure demand of consumers leads to the spread of the concept of "homology of medicine and food", which leads to the expansion of demand for medicinal materials; of course, it does not exclude the situation that some suppliers deliberately hoard and monopolize in the market to improve the price of medicinal materials In view of the above problems, the author believes that from the drug growers to suppliers, we should do a good job in rescue measures to improve the utilization rate of drugs and meet the market demand At the end of 2016, Wang Guoqiang, director of the State Administration of traditional Chinese medicine, once said: "it is an objective fact that the price of traditional Chinese medicine is rising." Industry insiders predict that the price rise of traditional Chinese medicine will last until 2018 Nowadays, the price of traditional Chinese medicine is almost normal Weak ask, do you think that in the future, we can still afford traditional Chinese medicine?
