The Purchase Of Cold Medicine That Is Really A Piece Of Paper - Cold Medicine, Restriction - The

In November this year, the State Food and Drug Administration issued a circular calling

for a common component containing ephedrine Cold Drugs in the implementation of limited sales, purchases per person may not more than five minimum retail packaging. Notice published in the first, each pharmacy in Nanjing can run this requirement. After a month has passed, the provisions of the like? Reporter yesterday visited a number of pharmacies in Nanjing found that most of the pharmacies seem to have "forgotten" limited purchase order.

States: control the purchase of drugs ordered

11 7, the State Food and Drug Administration issued a "Circular on Further Strengthening compound containing ephedrine class Preparation Control ", calling for further strengthening the compound containing ephedrine class Preparation (Not including proprietary Chinese medicines containing ephedra) management. Notification requirements, pharmacies selling class compound containing ephedrine, a not more than five minimum packaging.

Nanjing Drug Administration of the relevant person in charge, many cold medicines contain ephedrine vasoactive drugs. Ephedrine has a mental stimulant for the treatment of nasal congestion and other symptoms pretty well. At the same time, ephedrine is also being misused for manufacturing methamphetamine and other drugs.

Be included in the purchase of medicines containing ephedrine ingredients include paracetamol and pseudo-Asami-fen tablets (100-making day and night), paracetamol and pseudo-Asami Finnish film II (white plus black), compound pseudoephedrine hydrochloride sustained-release capsules (new Contax gram capsules) and other dozens of cold remedies, and sticking cream, wet-cured wound pain ointment, Tianyi cough syrup and cough and asthma medicines such as plaster.

Visited: Many pharmacies do not ask to sell

In the early stages of the implementation of the provisions of the Nanjing various pharmacies have implemented this provision, many drug stores also posted a notice entrance hall, but yesterday's visit found that many pharmacies for the purchase of cold medicine for the provisions have been nominal, one-time cold medicine to buy 56 boxes can be bought easily.

About 2 pm yesterday, the reporter into Hongwu Road, "National Grand pharmacies" that need to buy six boxes of white with black, the shop said nothing, a salesman from the counter medication.

Subsequently, the reporter arrived at the Xinhua bookstore, Zhongshan East Road, opposite a large pharmacy, where the "white with black" box price was 10 yuan, to be cheaper than other pharmacies. Told to buy 5 boxes, a pharmacy employee said: "I eat, do not need to buy so many." Reporter that is bought for travel on behalf of my colleagues, she immediately took five boxes from the counter drug to reporters.

15:00, the reporter went to a pharmacy in the Hongwu road and found that there is no post pharmacies cold medicine on the purchase of any notice, the same, without any inquiries and registration, when the reporter said that when the family cold medicines, the other party immediately come up with five boxes of "white with black."

In Xinjiekou Hung Street Plaza 100 is a letter pharmacy, journalists want to buy 5 boxes of "white with black", the staff immediately alerted: "buy so many cold medicines, you should be prepared for going abroad?" "Is not is to prepare some medicine at home. "" What do you buy 4 boxes it, or buy other cold powder, white with black will contain ephedrine, according to regulations can not buy 5 boxes. "pauses the staff, and colleagues discussed, and finally decided it sold, but ID card registration. Then press that side of the counter at the cash register there is a "registration form of ephedrine."

Question: limit buy order is a dead letter

After the introduction of the restriction so a week, there are many people questioned, "even if the strict implementation of the restriction order pharmacies, but do not want a lot of people who have intention to buy cold medicine, many people only buy , or take a few more, you can buy enough cold medicine. "

For the purchase of the situation so poorly implemented, a public that FDA's restriction on the existence of loopholes in the provision itself, "there are loopholes", which provides only a dead letter. Another member of the public said that criminals are more likely to get from the manufacturer or the wholesale segment large pharmaceutical composition containing ephedrine, "as the functions of the department, not only fixed her eyes on the pharmacy, should strengthen the supervision on these links" .

This, the responsible person in Nanjing FDA also believes that the restriction that the existence of vulnerabilities, in fact, a provision may be some people are abused and lead drug regulators can only do regular inspections, such as pharmacies found to have irregularities, can only warn and urge, but no economic sanctions requirements.
