A grain of rice can cover a few words, and the drug instructions are produced with "micro-engraving printing", which makes the drug buying group, especially the elderly, look very difficult......

At the end of 2023, in order to solve the problem of "unclear" drug instructions, the State Food and Drug Administration announced the first batch of pilot lists for the transformation of instructions, and 657 drugs were included in it. According to the requirements of the Drug Review Center of the State Food and Drug Administration, the pilot enterprises will rationalize and adjust the font and line spacing according to the specific content and paper size of the instructions, so as to form a format suitable for patients to read.
In the past six months, 270 kinds of drugs have been filed in the country, and it is expected that the first batch of pilot drugs will be gradually put on the market before the end of June this year.
Taking Hunan as an example, 35 drugs have completed the filing, of which 7 varieties of 5 companies have been listed, and it is expected that between May and June, 21 varieties of 9 companies will be able to be listed one after another.
