The modernization of Chinese medicine is accelerating, and the Chinese medicine industry also urgently needs to speed up "machine substitution"

Traditional Chinese medicine is a treasure of our country, and it has made important contributions to the protection of our people's health and national reproduction
.
In recent years, benefiting from favorable policies, the Chinese patent medicine market has shown steady growth
.
Data show that the market size of Chinese patent medicines in 2019 is 538.
655 billion yuan, and the market size is expected to reach 787.
93 billion yuan in 2025.
The market prospects are promising
.
It is worth mentioning that although the development of Chinese medicine contains business opportunities, it also faces some challenges
.
In recent years, although China’s traditional Chinese medicine production technology has made some progress, in the face of the increasing health needs of the people and the impact of Western medicine, the inheritance and development of traditional Chinese medicine theories and technical methods are still difficult, including the current production of some Chinese medicine companies.
Technology has not yet got rid of the workshop->
.
In general, there is still a big gap between China's traditional Chinese medicine production and the realization of modern medicine production requirements
.
Pharmaceutical production equipment (picture source: Pharmaceutical Network) The innovation and development of the Chinese medicine industry has become a trend.
Technology, standardization, and internationalization are the development trends of the modernization of Chinese medicine.
Among them, science and technology is a very important factor
.
In recent years, the traditional Chinese medicine industry and some enterprises have been actively transforming and upgrading the modern research, development, production, management and application of traditional Chinese medicine to promote the development of traditional Chinese medicine research and development and the development of the traditional Chinese medicine industry.
Many enterprises have taken advantage of the "dongfeng" of speeding up the approval of new medicines.
The approval of new Chinese medicines has been accelerated.
This year, the number of innovative Chinese medicines has reached 11, which is another record high
.
In 2021, the modernization of traditional Chinese medicine will continue to accelerate, and the results have been remarkable
.
For example, recently, the news of the completion and commissioning of Guangzhou Pharmaceuticals Macau Pharmaceutical Factory was reported.
According to reports, the pharmaceutical factory is a traditional Chinese medicine pharmaceutical factory designed and constructed in accordance with modern GMP standards.
Initiative
.
Next, Guangzhou Pharmaceutical Group will "borrow" Macau to accelerate the overseas development of proprietary Chinese medicines
.
Jiangzhong Pharmaceutical stated on the investor interaction platform in early December that the company relied on R&D platforms such as the "National Engineering Research Center for Solid Preparation Manufacturing Technology of Traditional Chinese Medicine" to enhance its research and development capabilities.
After the market of traditional Chinese medicine, it has achieved characteristic technical accumulation in evidence-based evaluation and other aspects
.
According to reports, in December 2019, the company's "Modernization of Traditional Chinese Medicine Manufacturing-Research and Application of Key Technologies for the Industrialization of Solid Preparations" also won the award
.
For another example, in June, led by China Resources Sanjiu (Zaozhuang) Pharmaceutical Co.
, Ltd.
, Suzhou Industrial Technology Research Institute of Zhejiang University, and Zeda Xingbang, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Zeda Yisheng, jointly undertook the “Digital Workshop for Chinese Patent Medicine Preparations”.
Application of New Models" National Intelligent Manufacturing New Model Application Project successfully passed the acceptance of the expert group
.
These powerful companies are continuing to promote the modernization and upgrading of the traditional Chinese medicine industry by increasing R&D investment, as well as cooperating with universities and research institutes and other companies, to improve quality and process optimization
.
The Chinese medicine industry also urgently needs to speed up the "machine substitution"
.
Workers must first sharpen their tools if they want to do well .
Insiders pointed out that in the development process of Chinese medicine modernization, the key is to improve the manufacturing level, and the core is pharmaceutical equipment
.
“To produce high-quality innovative preparations of traditional Chinese medicine, you must have corresponding manufacturing equipment
.
” Therefore, in the process of promoting the modernization of traditional Chinese medicine manufacturing, industry enterprises should not only pay attention to research and development, but also focus on cultivating and developing the characteristic equipment industry of traditional Chinese medicine, and accelerate the implementation of the traditional Chinese medicine industry.
"Machine Substitution"
.
However, at present, in the traditional Chinese medicine pharmaceutical equipment market, although the existing equipment has a rich variety and complete specifications, the level of automation, informationization, and intelligence is generally low, and it is difficult to meet the high efficiency, low energy consumption, and low energy consumption of modern Chinese medicine.
In the demand for high-quality production, many pharmaceutical companies can only rely on expensive imported equipment
.
Facing new opportunities, pharmaceutical companies should strengthen cooperation with equipment manufacturers, strengthen technical research around the relevant links of Chinese medicine manufacturing, and develop and manufacture highly automated, intelligent, quality and efficiency improvement, energy-saving and consumption-reducing extraction and separation, decoction processing, preparation processing, etc.
New-type complete sets of Chinese medicine pharmaceutical equipment, speed up the realization of the localization of Chinese medicine pharmaceutical equipment, and solve the problem of "stuck neck" caused by imported equipment in the manufacture of Chinese medicine
.
Conclusion In general, in the process of modernization of Chinese medicine, in addition to the continuous development of modern Chinese medicine scientific research, it is also necessary to pay attention to the innovation and development of Chinese medicine pharmaceutical equipment.
Chinese medicine is speeding up to the world and better serving the public health
