Three diseases of traditional Chinese medicine industry remain unchanged for ten years

April 24, 2013 source: there is a line in a recent TV play "dad goes home" in the securities times to the effect that "good traditional Chinese medicine has been destroyed by your travelling doctors" In fact, the debate on traditional Chinese medicine and traditional Chinese medicine has a long history Supporters believe that traditional Chinese medicine is the quintessence of the country, which can stand side by side with western medicine Opponents believe that the pharmacology and side effects of traditional Chinese medicine are difficult to quantify with modern medicine Unfortunately, up to now, there are still several problems about traditional Chinese medicine, even more and more confused The public has always been in a dilemma about traditional Chinese medicine Generally speaking, they take western medicine as the main way, but when it comes to epidemic situation, health care and other aspects, they rush for traditional Chinese medicine, which can be seen from the fact that Radix Isatidis has become a "magic medicine" and the price of Cordyceps has been fried to the sky high Objectively speaking, the phenomenon of isatis root and Cordyceps actually reflects a kind of morbid consumption psychology in the Chinese medicine market, which originates from the ignorance of Chinese medicine and creates a false prosperity Regulatory authorities, Chinese medicine enterprises and Chinese medicine itself have not made any achievements in some aspects, which has been the case for ten years As a result, "everyone knows that there are problems with traditional Chinese medicine, but nobody wants to solve them." As we all know, the state health and Family Planning Commission has a Chinese medicine administration, which is specially responsible for the management of traditional Chinese medicine, while the State Food and drug administration is responsible for the unified management of Chinese and Western medicine However, in the view of some critics, the relevant regulatory authorities protect more than manage traditional Chinese medicine, so that every time there is a quality problem (adverse reaction of traditional Chinese medicine injection, etc.) or public opinion crisis (such as the dispute of "live bear takes gall" in Guizhen Hall), the relevant regulatory authorities will seize the opportunity to resolve the crisis Of course, the regulatory authorities intended to protect the traditional Chinese medicine industry, but from the perspective of the development law of the industry, it is obviously not the blessing of the industry to rely too much on the protection of the regulatory authorities A media once disclosed that a county-level hospital of traditional Chinese medicine practices medicine under the guise of integration of traditional Chinese and Western medicine Once there is a medical accident, it will ask for help from the regulatory authorities, and it will not forget to protect traditional Chinese medicine and national brands It is undeniable that since the establishment of the Chinese medicine administration, TCM has made considerable development and standardization, but problems such as new types of travelling doctors and industry standards have not been solved, especially the innovation of TCM has obviously become a bottleneck affecting the further development of TCM For example, there is a common phenomenon of planting Chinese herbal medicine in a plot of land, and then establishing a Chinese herbal medicine company In the aspect of Chinese herbal medicine planting, there are also poor treatment of pesticides, fertilizers and residues of Chinese herbal medicine Even in A-share listed Chinese medicine enterprises, the above problems are common, and this problem is caused by the lack of management in the final analysis For traditional Chinese medicine enterprises, they often have the advantages of exclusive brand or product, especially some varieties such as donkey hide gelatin, Pianzihuang (600436, Guba), Baiyao, etc., which have a history of hundreds of years or even thousands of years, so they do not need to make great efforts to re develop and try to maintain Western medicine enterprises are different They either spend a lot of money to research and develop new varieties, but the cycle is very long, or they copy foreign drugs without patent protection, but they are facing fierce market competition, because similar pharmaceutical enterprises will also copy The above differences between Chinese and Western medicine actually mean that they are not equal when they participate in the market competition In the past, traditional Chinese medicine enterprises should make full use of this innate advantage to win the trust of patients As a result, traditional Chinese medicine enterprises have developed a bandit logic, that is, the old ancestors can still eat you? Many traditional Chinese medicine enterprises are promoting the history and curative effect of traditional Chinese medicine From the advertisements, we can find that there are more so-called "Shenyao" in traditional Chinese medicine than in western medicine However, from the aspect of traditional Chinese medicine itself, there are some problems, such as unknown formula or even toxic ingredients There is no big problem with unknown ingredients Coca Cola also has a top secret formula However, the resistance of Coca Cola is much smaller than that of traditional Chinese medicine, which is closely related to the double standards of the disclosure of traditional Chinese medicine ingredients at home and abroad For the possible toxic ingredients, Chinese medicine in the drug description is vague or even simply avoided As we all know, what medicine needs is transparency, not mystery No matter how good the traditional Chinese medicine is, if it is not standardized, the industry will be ruined, and it will be too late to repent
