    According to the "Guidelines for the Rational Use of Drugs for Hypertension" issued by the National Health Commission, it is estimated that by 2030, the number of adult hypertension in China will exceed 400 million
    .
    It is reported that more than 80% of cardiovascular disease patients suffer from hypertension, and the number of premature deaths caused by increased blood pressure in China is as high as more than 2 million every year, and the annual direct medical expenses reach 36.
    6 billion yuan.

    According to Sullivan's forecast, China's antihypertensive drug market will reach 114.
    9 billion yuan in 2022.

    114.
    9 billion

    Commonly used antihypertensive drugs are divided into six categories: angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI), angiotensin II receptor antagonists (ARBs), calcium ion antagonists (CCBs), β-blockers, α-blockers, and diuretics
    .
    Among them, sartan drugs have a thorough antihypertensive effect, few side effects, long efficacy and can be combined with other sartan drugs, and have become the most widely used hypertension treatment drugs
    .
    Sartan-type antihypertensive drugs are angiotensin II receptor antagonists, and the mechanism of action is to inhibit the binding of angiotensin II to receptors on the cell membrane, block the vasoconstrictor effect of angiotensin II, thereby facilitating vasodilation, expanding peripheral blood vessels, reducing peripheral resistance, and lowering blood pressure
    .

    At present, with the shift of the focus of international API production and the control of costs by multinational pharmaceutical companies, the production focus of global chemical APIs has shifted to developing countries, and the expansion of market demand and the changes in the international API industry pattern interact and play a role, making pharmaceutical companies aiming at the antihypertensive drug market achieve rapid development
    .
    As one of the main sartan API export enterprises in China, Tianyu Co.
    , Ltd.
    occupies an important position
    in the sartan API manufacturers.
