With the continuous improvement of people's health awareness, some common medicines and first-aid medicines in the home have gradually become the norm. However, some drugs often expire before they are used, and how to deal with expired drugs becomes a big problem.
According to the Legal Network, China's "Measures for the Supervision and Administration of Drugs in Medical Institutions (Trial)" does not provide for the disposal of expired drugs. Therefore, in the absence of rules, there are major problems in the handling of expired drugs.
The Economic Information Daily has reported that ordinary medicines have little effect on the environment and humans if the treatment is not appropriate, but the consequences of improper treatment of special drugs are terrible. If you discard antibiotics, anti-tumor drugs, contraceptives and other biochemical drugs, antibiotics may endanger the safety of people with allergies. Anti-tumor drugs may cause genetic mutations, and contraceptives may cause species variation. In addition, CCTV has also reported that the National Hazardous Wastes List states that expired drugs produced during the production, sale and use process are hazardous wastes. Unlike general waste, hazardous waste is more harmful. Hazardous waste discharged and stored at will will pollute water and soil under the long-term penetration and diffusion of rainwater and groundwater, thus affecting human health.
According to the "People's Daily" report, according to the latest regulations of the "Implementation Plan for the Domestic Waste Classification System" issued by the National Development and Reform Commission and the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development in March 2017, residents should separately place hazardous waste. The text clearly states that waste drugs and their packaging materials are hazardous waste. Kind.
So, what should be done with expired drugs at home?
If there are expired drugs in the family that need to be recycled, first of all, we should pay attention to whether the living quarters are classified as garbage. If there are classified garbage bins, the expired drugs will be packaged and put into the “harmful garbage†trash can. In order to prevent someone from using the expired drugs for secondary use, the drugs and packaging can be destroyed to a certain extent before being placed in the "hazardous garbage" trash can. In addition, some pharmacies can also recycle expired drugs, and you can ask at a pharmacy near your home.
In China, nervous system drugs are also one of the drugs with the most rapid sales growth in recent years. In 2002, nervous system drugs occupied 5.9% of the entire pharmaceutical market share, and the total sales amount increased by 9.4%.
With the increasing trend of urbanization and aging, the elderly population in China has exceeded 120 million, and the incidence of geriatric diseases, especially mental diseases, is increasing year by year. With the increase of residents' income, the elderly's requirements for quality of life also increase. As a result, the demand for drugs to treat mental illnesses such as Alzheimer's has soared. In WHO drug classification, psychotropic drugs and nootropic drugs are grouped into one class. We briefly analyzed the development trend of this class of drugs through the clinical drug use data collected from more than 300 domestic key hospitals by Chinese Pharmaceutical Association.
The overall market size of this class of drugs is about 1.22 billion yuan, the consumption sum increased by 5.0% in 2002, but the sales quantity increased by 11.2%. The main reason why the consumption sum did not increase with the sales quantity is that several main varieties of this class of drugs, such as piracetam, cobalt bin amide and ginkgo biloba leaf, etc. In 2002, the price of selling units fell sharply due to bidding. Among these drugs, ginkgo biloba preparation occupies the largest market share, accounting for more than 1/3 of the market share, ganglioside ester and cobalt bin amide combined also occupy nearly 1/3 of the market share, piracetam and other "sitan" drugs occupy nearly 10% of the market share, the rest of the drugs occupy less than 5% of the market share. At present, more than 20 ginkgo leaf production enterprises, piracetam production enterprises more than 70, have entered the stage of price competition, profit repeatedly diluted.
In the first-line varieties, except ginkgo biloba leaves preparation maintained vigorous vitality, the growth of other varieties were weak, especially the traditional variety piracetam suffered from bidding
