[ China Pharmaceutical Network Health and Health ] Some criminals, in order to make profits, will make fake drugs. The state has always regarded the fight against counterfeit drugs as a prominent and important task, and has always maintained a high-pressure strike. However, there are still some counterfeit drugs, inferior drugs, and even foods pretending to be in the market, especially in the case of drugs that obviously expand the curative effect, the secret recipe of the ancestors, and use similar names of some famous academic groups. Seriously identify. The following is a brief introduction to some small methods for identifying counterfeit and inferior drugs.
Outer packaging
The printing quality of fake and shoddy medicine packaging is mostly poor, and the anti-counterfeiting mark is not clear. In addition, according to the regulations, the "common name" (including chemical composition) of the drug should be indicated on the outer packaging instead of the "product name". For example, “Ammonia Plus Capsule†is the generic name of the drug, while “Quick-effect Injury Capsule†is the trade name. If the outer package only has the trade name and the common name is not allowed, it is not allowed.

The drug must be able to see the approval number on the packaging: “National Medicine Standard H (or ZSJBF) + 8 digitsâ€, which means the drug approved by the State Food and Drug Administration for production and marketing, H letter for chemical, Z Chinese patent medicines, S biological products, J imported drugs, domestic packaging, B drugs with auxiliary therapeutic effects, F pharmaceutical excipients. The approval number is equivalent to the “ID card†of the drug. If it is not certain that it is not a drug, if there is a data inquiry on the website of the State Food and Drug Administration, it is found that the name of the drug, the manufacturer, and the approval number are consistent with the drug. The true medicine, which is not met or not found, is definitely a fake medicine.
