It is worth noting that in this collection, multiple injections are different dosage forms of the previous collection

Dosage form, this time the collection of metoprolol sustained-release dosage form is included

04 The renewal of the national procurement contract allows price increases, and enterprises usher in new opportunities

.

On January 24, the Jilin Provincial Drug Procurement Center issued the "Notice on Announcement of the Announcement of the Result of the Bidding Renewal Project of the Selected Drugs in Jilin Province after the Expiry of the First and Third Batch of State-Organized Centralized Drug Purchasing Agreements".
A total of 16 products participated in the bid renewal.
, the prices of some drugs have increased significantly, for example, the clozapine tablets of Jiangsu Enhua Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.
increased by more than 120%
.

It is not a new thing to increase the price of domestically sourced varieties after the renewal of the contract.
The Shaanxi Provincial Medical Insurance Bureau also proposed that the price of the last round of centralized procurement was low, and due to factors such as rising costs, the company could not continue to supply at the original selected price.
Allow the selected price to rise appropriately
.

For the selected pharmaceutical companies, allowing the renewal of the contract to increase the price is undoubtedly a good opportunity for it
.

As we all know, most of the varieties entering the centralized procurement have achieved a considerable decline
.
The first five batches of chemical drugs were collected from China, and the average decline was at least 50%, the largest at 59%, and the highest decline was over 90%
.

With the dynamic adjustment of centralized procurement prices, to a certain extent, it may stimulate the enthusiasm of enterprises to participate in centralized procurement, and under the premise of maintaining reasonable profit margins, the supply of enterprises will become more and more stable
