The profit of some drugs reaches 2000%, and the hidden interest chain becomes the black hand to push the price of drugs.
  In the field of pharmaceutical production and circulation, the chaos of capital manipulation of the market began. The current compound reserpine tablets incident is undoubtedly a microcosm. Because the supply of raw materials is "stuck in the neck", there are frequent shortages of basic pharmaceutical products. The shortage of epinephrine hydrochloride injection, the shortage of potassium chloride injection and protamine crisis all pointed to a single raw material supply channel, which reflected the market reality of the lack of supply chain guarantee of essential drugs. Only the change of raw material suppliers has affected the production of the whole industry, which shows that the supply of essential drugs needs to be led by the government, and the interest contradictions in its supply chain should be straightened out and systematically broken.
  From this year’s point of view, more than 20 provinces across the country have started bidding for essential drugs, and the problem of supply interruption of cheap essential drugs has appeared frequently. The occurrence of this "monopoly gate" incident undoubtedly shows the predicament of meager profits faced by cheap drugs at present, and also provides a model for the management of monopoly and disguised monopoly in drug production at present.
