Medicine price rises

In general, there was no upheaval in wholesale price of medicines in the market, but retail price of medicines rose in August. However, currently locally-produced drug price is still stable and there is a slight decrease in antibiotic drugs. Recently, imported drugs have reduced from 3.5% to 17.4%, but some imported drugs only increases by 2%-6%.

Now the Ministry of Health has carried out some solutions of anti-monopoly and medicine price control, so the ministry forecasts that medicine price will be stable in September, except for some special imported drugs.
