ABSTRACT
Chinese medicine prices often have sharp rise or fall, and even the impact of short-term price rise on the quality of feed can't be ignored.On the other hand, the production of traditional Chinese medicine is strictly subject to resource constraints, so much of the industrial production due to lack of or prohibited use of resources must bestopped. Based on 203 Chinese patent medicines in the National Essential Drugs (2012 Edition), the factors that influence the supply of essential drugs of traditional Chinese medicine were analyzed and seven indicators for the supply of essential medicines were designed in this paper. According to the Chinese herbal medicine resources survey and dynamic monitoring service system data, a multi-index comprehensive evaluation model based on radar chart analysis was proposed, providing a holistic and overall evaluation of the supply situation of essential drugs of traditional Chinese medicine. The evaluation results were concise, clear and intuitive. In this paper, Jiuwei Qianghuo Wan and Ganmao Qingre Keli were taken as the examples to prove that the proposed comprehensive evaluation method is concise, clear, intuitive, credible and practical.
ABSTRACT
Objective To analysis the major problems and the causes in the process of centralized purchasing of national essen -tial drugs, and to give some effective solutions according to the price problems for ensuring the quality and regular supply of national es -sential drugs , decrease patients burden effectively and safeguard the medication safety of patients .Methods The implementation of cen-tralized purchasing of national essential drugs was investigated , the problems which were major and outstanding were analyzed to find out the internal causes and the effective solutions were given .Results The progression of centralized purchasing of national essential drugs was successfully in general .The implementation of the principle of winning of the bidding with the lowest bid price lead to excessive low price, which caused some problems such as lower quality or bad supplied of some national essential drugs .Conclusion The price policy of centralized purchasing of national essential drugs should not be instituted based on the lower price , more winning of biddings .It needed more scientific and overall perspective thoughts .It maybe solve the problems mentioned above by winning of the bidding with the lowest bid price in the interval average price , appropriately loosing the control of difference rate with the results of decreasing the drug price , avoiding cut-throat competition, ensuring the quality and supply of drugs , lightening the patients′burden, releasing the problem of high cost of getting medical treatment .
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To analyze the problems of TCM injection included in Primary Medical Institutions Parts of National Essential Drugs List(2009 edition).METHODS:Danshen injection was taken as an example.The chemical composition of it (including water-soluble ingredients,fat-soluble components,other types of compounds,inorganic elements,proteins,tannins,polysaccharides,volatile oil),adverse reactions and quality standards were analyzed to investigate the problems of TCM injection included in Primary Medical Institutions Parts of National Essential Drugs List(2009 edition).RESULTS & CONCLUSION:Complex chemical composition of TCM injection and poor controlled quality standards require the further study.Because the safety of TCM injection is difficult to be guaranteed,it is necessary that reevaluation,research,consolidation of TCM injection.

ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To introduce the pharmacoeconomic evaluation into the selection of national essential drugs so as to improve the accessibility of drugs,use essential drugs rationally,and control the rapid increase of drug expenses.METHODS:The status quo of the application of pharmacoeconomic evaluation in the selection process of essential drugs in both China and abroad and the main problems faced by China were analyzed.RESULTS & CONCLUSION:The lack of evaluation agency and professional talents,non-unified technical standard and imperfect system guarantee are the main problems faced by China in the introduction of pharmacoeconomic evaluation into the selection of national essential drugs were,thus 5 thoughts on the introduction of pharmacoeconomic evaluation into the selection of National Essential Drugs have been put forward.
ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the situation of the use of cardiovascular drugs and its trend of develop?ment.METHODS:The cardiovascular drugs used during2001～2003were analyzed retrospectively in respect to the sale amount,DDDs and etc.RESULTS:The sale amount of cardiovascular drugs was increasing year by year;the antihypertensives and antianginals ranked at the first two places in respect to the sequence of the amount of money and the DDDs;the sale amount of joint-venture products was the largest,and there was a high proportions of national essential drugs consump?tion.CONCLUSIONS:There was a stable and rational structure of cardiovascular drugs in our hospital.Domestic substitute drugs should be exploited for medical researchers in the future so as to reduce the cost of medicine.
