In the selection of respiratory medicines, cough relieving and phlegm always supplement each other.

At the end of 2009, the world was affected by a stream of flu, which drove sales of flu drugs and related "rubbing edge" drugs. At the same time, the introduction of the new medical reforms and the state's essential medicine system has hit the retail market. Against this backdrop, what is the development trend of cough and phlegm drugs?

Market expansion of proprietary Chinese medicines

From the end of 2009 to the beginning of 2010, the south of China was hit by a stream of low-flowing and cold waves, and supply of anti-influenza drugs was in short supply. Having undergone the baptism of SARS and A stream, the people's health awareness and self-medication level have been improved, and the psychology of the people purchasing drugs has changed. The cough and phlegm-removing drugs that were not taken seriously in the past have been favored. According to the analysis of the China Drug Retail Monitoring and Analysis System of the SFDA Southern Medicine Economic Research Institute's Guangzhou Punctuation Medical Information Co., Ltd., in the first half of 2010, sales in the retail markets of cough and phlegm-removing drugs in three southern cities of Guangzhou, Wuhan, and Chengdu continued to increase. The first half of 2009 increased by 70% over the same period, and the market potential cannot be ignored.

In the first half of 2010, in the three cities mentioned above, the proportion of proprietary Chinese medicines for cough and phlegm-removal remained the largest, followed by chemical drugs (Figure 1). Chinese patent medicine accounted for 76.98%, an increase of 0.11 percentage points over the first half of 2009. Chemicals accounted for 11.97%, a decrease of 1.63 percentage points from the same period of last year.

Although the market share has been squeezed, its status as a gimmick is difficult to shake.

Among the top five brands, only Huifening is a western medicine, and the rest are proprietary Chinese medicines. The first and the fifth place are all ointment. The total market share is close to 20%, ahead of other brands. It can be seen that traditional Chinese patent medicines, especially ointments, have a long history, no addiction, good taste, and are widely recognized by the people for cough and phlegm.

The total market share (CR4) is 45.80%. The market is relatively mature and competition is still fierce.

It is worth mentioning that Nicole, Pan Gaoshou and Taiji Group are the top three in terms of local advantage. The No. 1 ranking of the Nintendo Plant of Kyoto is only a brand of Nindy Peach Honey. Its advertising phrase “Nian Ci 庵 庵 庵 点 慈 慈” is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, relying on its popularity and good quality, taking the cultural tradition and emotional marketing front, and occupying nearly 30% of oral liquids and ointments. The second-ranking Pangaoshou Pharmaceuticals is more focused on product penetration and complete coverage on dosage forms. The four types of decoctions, oral liquids, and syrups from the "Fighting Ipomoea Chuanbei Decoction", "Shedan Chuanbei Decoction", "Michelin Chuanbei Decoction", and "Shedan Chuanbei Decoction" have been further expanded to The new dosage form fully meets the different needs of the masses and creates a new conceptual orientation for the “cough suppressant expert”. What kind of marketing strategy is more popular among the people and remains to be seen.
