Some of natural musk, bear bile powder endangered Chinese herbal medicines Varieties of medicine, its sources of raw materials will not only further tightening in the future, related species of imitation are limited restructuring. Meanwhile, with the phase out of endangered Chinese herbal medicine business in the circulation field, and to serve the many raw materials to produce drugs Pharmaceutical companies Bottleneck effect of raw materials will become more prominent.



To save resources and protect the ecological environment, strengthen the protection of endangered wild medicinal resources and rational use of point of view, SFDA recently introduced "including endangered varieties of medicinal principles of Chinese medicine" (the "Principles"), specifically the natural musk, bear gall bladder, ivory and other endangered wild medicinal herbs included in the restricted range of traditional Chinese medicine production. bugaboo cameleon fabric

"Principles" that, in view of some traditional Chinese medicines containing endangered species of wild medicinal prescription, according to the management of endangered wild medicinal materials regulations and rules, technical review in the future should follow the following principles: "First, to promote the development needs of the Chinese medicine industry and protecting the environment, wildlife resources and endangered species of wild medicinal resources in combination; 2 is strictly limited and endangered wild medicinal herbs used in the production of proprietary Chinese medicines; Third, wild and cultivated, animals and plants, and should be treated differently in different medicinal parts, The artificial breeding (plant) to large-scale production, and can strictly control its clinical value in the changed formulation, the use of generic medicines. "



The same time "principle" states: including containing natural musk, and the bear, leopard bone (tiger), ivory and other endangered species of wild medicinal herbs, Chinese medicine does not approve the change has been the national standard and generic formulations, and with strictly limited more endangered herbs New Drugs Registration; containing bear bile powder, antelope horn, pangolins, JBS, Agkistrodon, black snake species such as medicinal herbs, Chinese medicine does not approve the change has been the national standard formulations (the change of the original formulations of pharmaceutical enterprises excluded) and imitation, and the new drug application for registration has been completed application for registration of clinical trials may be appropriate, according to its clinical value and so on.



Guangzhou Pharmaceutical, Guangzhou Pharmaceutical mining Chi Lin, general manager of Chow Hill told reporters after hearing the news, "principles" that the future use of endangered medicinal development of new drugs will be further restricted. He pointed out that under the "Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora, Convention on International Trade", China is actively regulate the behavior of the protection of endangered plant and animal medicine, "principles" reaffirmed before the authorities has been adhering to the restrictions on the use of natural musk, pangolins and other protected animals, the practice of medicine .



It is understood that "principle" came after the state has promulgated laws and regulations has, on the need to protect endangered wild species and endangered wild medicinal resources to do the classification and requirements. July 2005, SFDA issued "on the use of proprietary prescription natural musk, artificial musk notice of the matter", in addition to Beijing Tong Ren Tang's Angong Niuhuang Wan, the Lei Yun Shang Pharmaceutical's Liushen, Zhangzhou Pien Tze Huang Medicine The five varieties of Pien Tze Huang and other proprietary products for natural musk, the other brands of similar drug production will equal the use of artificial musk; in November 2007, SFDA jointly with the Ministry, Traditional Chinese Medicine Authority issued "on strengthening the Saiga antelope, pangolins, rare snakes, resource protection and to regulate their products medicine Control", and further tightening the relevant species of medicine management. The release of the "principles" are clearly on the prescription of medicines containing endangered species in Chinese medicine put forward specific requirements.



To industry sources, the above mentioned species are the most commonly used Chinese herbs. Only natural musk, for example, the "National Formulary Chinese medicine" on a collection of 295 kinds of prescription with musk, musk of proprietary Chinese medicines containing nearly 400 species. Data show that the number of wild musk deer is now less than 100,000, and each is only an average adult male musk deer musk secreted 13 grams, but China's annual demand for up to thousands of kilograms of medicinal musk. Serious contradiction between supply and demand tilt not only to the natural musk price is higher than gold, even more so that our country is facing the endangered musk deer resources situation. And because the scale of the current artificial breeding musk deer not very mature, which led to traditional Chinese medicine resources needed to face the crisis of natural raw materials.



"Some natural ingredients may be the same as the strict management of natural musk, and may gradually depleted, and gradually withdraw from commercial circulation." Zhou Road, Hill said.
