Traditional Chinese medicine faces the life-and-death disaster in Europe There is not European Union to succeed in registration so far
Traditional Chinese medicine is that Chinese nation has several cultural rarities of history of thousand years, introduce to Europe for several hundred years too. Reach will it be April 1 2011 year, traditional Chinese medicine collapse entire PLA, or at all change over to the historical choice of ground in Europe. Belgian international medical centre Chairman Professor Lin GuoMing said: "The situation is very critical! Till now, no cases of traditional Chinese medicine succeed in registration in European Union formally. From April 1 next year, Chinese medicine of practising medicine in Europe will face being rifles and having no bullet, there is awkward condition without traditional Chinese medicine of Chinese medicine. " On March 31, 2004, European Union issued " registered procedure order of traditional plant medicine ". This order stipulates, all plant medicines sold on European Union market must be according to registration of this new regulation, continue selling after being listed and permit. Meanwhile, this order stipulated the transition period of 7, the medical herbs products allowed to sell in country of European Union with various identities such as food were sold until March 31, 2011. At present, Chinese herbal medicines in European Union market mostly circulate in the form of food, health product, plant medicine raw materials or agricultural and sideline local products. But will finish soon transition period of 7, traditional Chinese medicine will not be still succeeded in registering in European Union formally, where is the reason on earth? European Union " whether traditional the intersection of plant and medicine register the intersection of procedure and order " stipulate traditional medical herbs " already medical history for one year at least before application date, among them is included in European Union and already used history for 15 years at least " . Prove the important basis of the above-mentioned traditional application history is the documents and materials published, expert's report and customs' imports and exports writing record,etc. are the documentary evidence. Professor Lin GuoMing says: "It is very difficult to offer the products to 15 years and use the identification of history on European Union market. " Some records in Chinese pharmacopoeia for over 15 years, includes toxic crude drugs, classical Chinese medicine still employed extensively now, for instance six flavor digitalis pills, white phoenix pills of dark chicken,etc., had already entered European Union market as early as 1995 ago. However, together with shop with a history of a century of such benevolence hall being difficult to offer and have identification of using history on the markets of EU countries in 15 years. Before 2004, it was instead of registering according to medicines according to identities such as the food,etc. that the customs that export traditional Chinese medicine to the EU countries recorded. Moreover, the Chinese customs only demands to declare according to the unified code of Chinese medicine or traditional Chinese medicine decoction pieces before 2000, there is no export record of the single variety in enterprises. Second, the great amount of expenses let a lot of enterprises hang back. It is reported, traditional Chinese medicine of an enterprise is if according to the regulation registration of " traditional plant medicine register the procedure order ", the registration charges probably needs 800,000 yuan, should authorize through European Union GMP, makes the investment when the hardware with production equipment it costs more than 4 million yuan, and the training, expert instruct,etc. the investment of software also needs to be about 4 million yuans. Even so, some Chinese enterprise make great efforts actively still, try, succeed in registration product their in European Union before the end of will it be transition period 7 year. It is reported, ground energies health capsule in Chengdu of Sichuan has already supervised the examination of the department through Dutch medicine, the energies health capsule production line of ground has already been authorized through European Union GMP too, it is expected to become the first treatment Chinese medicine variety which enters the international market in China; Wide strange star medicine of medicine group obtains " Britain traditional products simple and easy to register with European Union medical herbs ' Britain) Medicines GMP are authorized " Approve and initiate a project; Buddha in Lanzhou is kind " Ming mountain " The card concentrates Chinese angelica pill and obtains the consent of national medicines administration bureau of Sweden too and accepts formally, assess and already pass too in advance. But before March 31, 2011, which one on earth will take the lead in obtaining the legal identity in European Union formally in these 3 enterprises, make traditional Chinese medicine obtain the break-through of zero in European Union's legal sale, people will wait and see. Professor Lin GuoMing travels widely in Europe, has practised medicine and has already been up to 20 years. He says: "In the face of such severe prospect, the task of top priority is to pool our ideas and make concerted efforts, deal with the difficult problem together. " It is the traditional Chinese medicine employees in European Union that should unite as one at first, should not squeeze and let down each other. Secondly it is doctor of traditional Chinese medicine in Europe and patient that should jointly sign and demand to give traditional Chinese medicine legal status. Professor Lin GuoMing says: "In Europe, rely on the person of Traditional Chinese medicine to be numerous. European Union member state is all democratic state, the politicians value the will of the people very much. After March 31, 2011, the traditional Chinese medicine employees in Europe can contact their patient, submit a written statement to European Union's politician together, demands to give Traditional Chinese medicine legal status, it is believed that these politicians will not ignore people's voice. " The third is the function of Chinese Government. China is the second major economy in the world now, the influence in the world is greater and greater, save the destiny in Europe of Traditional Chinese medicine, Chinese Government can play an irreplaceable role. Professor Lin GuoMing thinks, Chinese Government should work hard so that traditional Chinese medicine makes legal status in Europe while carrying on the talk and negotiation of the different levels with European Union and member state. Though the situation in Europe of traditional Chinese medicine is quite dangerous, Professor Lin GuoMing is not a pessimist. He says: "In the long term, I enter Europe and maintain a more optimistic attitude to traditional Chinese medicine. Because Traditional Chinese medicine stresses very much in the clinical superiority of treating the respect, there is larger folk approval in Europe, disease that a lot of western medical science can't be solved has Traditional Chinese medicine only and can be dealt with. I believe in the outpost of the tax office that set up, traditional Chinese medicine will top European Union. " (the reporter stayed in European Union Zhang XingHui)
