Abstract:
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the use and tendency of anti-rejection drugs in six cities in the Yangtze valley.METHODS: The consumption data for anti-rejection drugs in the Yangtze areas during the period 2004～2006 were analyzed statistically by the method of order of consumption sum.RESULTS: The anti-rejection drugs used in the Yangtze valley increased year by year,up 28.4% in 2005 and 23.9% in 2006 over the previous year.On the list of consumption sum for the six cities in Yangtze valley,the proportions for Shanghai over the 3 years were 67.1%,62.5% and 65.4%;those for Hangzhou were 12.6%,16.7% and 14.7%;5.3%,4.6%,4.6% for Nanjing;7.6%,9.0% and 7.4% for Wuhan;4.9%,4.5%,5.0%for Chendu,and 2.5%,2.7% and 2.9% for Chongqing.CONCLUSION: The consumption of anti-rejection drugs was unbalanced among the 6 cities in the Yangtze areas,but its clinical application was basically in line with the marketing of new drug both at home and abroad.The import drugs occupied the biggest market share,while the market share of the domestic drugs increased slowly but steadily.The prices for anti-rejection drugs were still very high,which should be lowered to reduce patients' economic burden.
