complained about the "expensive medicine in the pharmacy" of the pharmacy
In daily life, we will inevitably encounter some minor illnesses and pains, and pharmacies have become our preferred place to buy medicines. However, sometimes we find that the drugs in pharmacies seem to be much higher than those in other channels, which makes us wonder: what is the reason for the "high price of drugs in pharmacies"?
First of all, we need to understand that medicines** are affected by a variety of factors. Among them, the most direct factor is the cost of drug research and development. The development of a new drug often requires a lot of money and time, and these costs are eventually passed on to the consumer. As a result, new drugs tend to be sold at a higher price.
Secondly, the operating costs of pharmacies are also an important factor affecting drugs**. Pharmacies need to pay rent, staff salaries, utilities and other expenses, and these costs are spread across each drug. In addition, pharmacies also need to bear a certain amount of inventory risk, because some drugs have a short shelf life and can cause losses once they expire.
Also, we should note that there may be differences between different pharmacies and different medicines**. Some pharmacies may use higher profit margins to ensure continuity of operations, while others may have higher levels due to their uniqueness or rarity.
Of course, we can't deny that some pharmacies may have **irrational phenomena. This may be due to insufficient market competition, information asymmetry, and other reasons. Therefore, as consumers, we can choose the right medicines and pharmacies through multi-party comparison and understanding.
In conclusion, "the price of medicine in pharmacies" is not a simple problem. We need to analyze and understand this problem from multiple angles. As consumers, we can choose the right medicines and pharmacies through multi-party comparison and understanding;As a regulatory authority, we need to strengthen the supervision and regulation of drugs** to ensure fair competition in the market.
In the early days of the opening of pharmacies, pharmacies were not higher than hospital pricing, with 4+7, national volume procurement, and hospital 0 cost markup, drugs ** are undoubtedly cheaper than pharmacies in hospitals, and these drugs are mostly for chronic diseases. According to the level of hospitals, the procurement ratio required by different countries is different, and the first-class hospital is what we often call the primary hospital, such as the health center, and the procurement is not less than 50%.
The reason why secondary general hospitals are not less than 40%, * general hospitals is not less than 30%, and the reason why primary hospitals account for a relatively large proportion is that it is difficult to go to ** hospital for minor diseases, and ** hospitals often have their own preparations, and the essence of medicine is to prevent and ** disease, not absolutely cheap**. However, the country's centralized procurement will inevitably cause the overall profits of pharmacies to decline, but pharmacies have always occupied convenience, such as 24-hour pharmacies Meituan Pharmacies, Ele.me Pharmacies, Jingdong Pharmacies, and Ali Pharmacies. But for ** has undoubtedly been transparent, so the advantage of pharmacies is undoubtedly only convenience, what do you think about this?
