Chinese traditional generic names named technology guidelines (draft) "is put forward, proprietary Chinese medicine named should avoid using may give patients to suggest about the pharmacology, anatomy, physiology, pathology and therapeutics, the names of the pharmaceuticals, such as" hypoglycemic, antihypertensive, lipid, diminish inflammation, cancer "and other words; Should not be exaggerated, boast, unrealistic terms, such as "treasure" "spirit" "fine" "strong" "available", or "drive" praise "secret" and so on. In addition, proprietary Chinese medicine should not be commonly use person names, place names, company name, should not adopt the feudal superstition or vulgar language.
For Chinese medicines, already on the market, paper puts forward, the guiding principle is not only applicable to the naming of new drug of TCM, also apply to original specification is not standard naming of proprietary Chinese medicine. For use of medicines, such as must be altered to its former name was listed as a transition.
Older drugs to how wide range? Feed in the column of domestic pharmaceutical drug safety administration of drug database, press the input part involves the change of keywords, can be retrieved thousands of drug approval, the name of light contains word "spirit" of medicine has more than 2000. Listed companies and a number of drugs or renamed involved, including the tongrentang, guizhou lark, zhong xin pharmaceutical, China resources, temmoku pharmaceutical, enjoyed a lump-sum pharmaceutical industry, etc.
Yunnan baiyao group co., LTD., technical quality director Li Jin said that if the name can't land, yunnan baiyao series of seven formulations, 7 products will be affected. In addition to containing "yunnan baiyao" 4 words dosage forms and products, yunnan baiyao series may involve change name of drug varieties include: compound bezoar anti-inflammatory capsule, pu blue tablet, antiphlogistic cough, lotus cheese tablet particle, anti-inflammatory analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antifebrile cream (above all "inflammation" two words), pediatric treasure taikang ling capsule, granule, cure-all, more years/spirit piece above (contain the words "treasure" spirit ""), etc.
Li Jin argues that if current exposure draft, many famous old it will have great influence. "If yunnan baiyao need change name, so yunnan baiyao in 115 set up the brand, reputation, public awareness, or will collapse, estimate the damage will exceed 10 billion yuan."
Standing vice President of the Beijing pharmaceutical profession association spectrum.it provides home said: "the name means that the packing material, specification, a small box, carton, tags, all need to change, packaging production cost can be calculated, bear, but for the old brand, changed its name to bring invisible loss is very big, but also spend a lot of manpower and financial resources to carry on the secondary market cultivation, let the consumer know the renamed product is originally used to the older drugs."
A the personage inside course of study tells a reporter, for drug firms, changed its name after the need to feed to the local food and drug administration register, for a large quantity of renamed enterprise, registration fee will be a lot of spending. "Across different price, there is no charge for a few provinces, most provinces are charge. A product must pay 6600 yuan in Beijing." The person said, his company has 35 product or will involve change name, registration fee alone more than 230000 yuan.
Renamed the governance "name not astonishing don't give up" chaos
Reporters found that as early as the 90 s, state departments have been put forward for proprietary Chinese medicine named specification. Written in 1997 by the ministry of health of pharmacopoeia committee "the Chinese medicine common name," clearly put forward the Chinese traditional medicine, chemical and biological drugs, radioactive drugs and diagnostic medicine naming principles.
Reporters noted that the paper named the new adjustment is based on the generic names of the principles of the proposed.
Spectrum.it provides thought, for specification of proprietary Chinese medicine name is necessary, "the formation of history. In the past, many medicines are approved by the local, no unified naming rules. In addition, although a lot of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) is a name, but in fact is not a prescription."
Especially in recent years, the people increasingly strong demand for drugs, health care drugs, "health products banner's proprietary Chinese medicine type named chaos mount. The personage inside course of study introduces, individual drug firms production of proprietary Chinese medicine quality good and bad are intermingled, but on the name "name not astonishing don't give up", optional bragging about curative effect, lead to many older consumers cheated, standardize the proprietary Chinese medicine name is imperative.
Experts are calling for traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) named should give attention to both cultural heritage and regulation
For existing Chinese medicine must be full name, many consumers said it is hard to understand. A primary school teacher in kunming Liu Yue said: "like yunnan baiyao aerosol, ma yinglong haemorrhoid creams, wind is standing drugs in the home, people to recognize the brand, if there were no longer the name overnight, can feel very incommensurate."
China association of traditional Chinese medicine association, vice President of wang ying told reporters that has recently held a symposium, group member enterprise seriously discussion, focuses on submit it to the administration of drug safety.
Li Jin believes that some of the familiar old, old brand is the outstanding representative and symbol of TCM culture in our country, has the world influence, need to discriminate. Such as the United States is the yunnan baiyao barron's listed as the "10 americans need to know the Chinese brand", yunnan baiyao once changed its name, its brand image on behalf of China will be impossible.
"Not to management of traditional Chinese medicine with western medicine the thinking of western medicine, especially on the name." Chinese academy of social sciences said Chen Jiguang led the state of the research group of Chinese medicine, Chinese traditional Chinese medicine in naming tend to be the inventor, the name of the producer, the gentleman medicine and other factors are taken into consideration, such as "JiDeSheng snake medicine" "ma yinglong haemorrhoid creams" "Zhao Nashan belly pain pills", etc., this is a contribution to the inventor of a kind of recognition.
In addition, pay attention to "tunnel" of traditional Chinese medicine, the place is the best embodiment. "Yunnan baiyao, for example, not only in yunnan baiyao, but only the efficacy of yunnan baiyao best." Chen Jiguang said, if person names, place names are not as medicines, traditional Chinese medicine will complete loss of traditional culture.
Wei, deputy director of the planning commission of yunnan province administration of traditional Chinese medicine Zheng Jin believes that the name of a proprietary Chinese medicine need specification, but also should respect the old old brand. Drug name "management can reduce to exaggerate the effect of drug of misleading to consumers, but for a few has the historical origin, the established and approved by the people, word of mouth marketing of older drugs should not be one size fits all." Classify Zheng Jin advice, visual information management, with no history of drug constraints according to new naming method, for the old brand of medicines, it changed its name should not be forced.
