        The Chinese people's political consultative conference held 19 "children drug problem" seminars. At present, the domestic market 90% drug no suitable for children's dosage form, some special medicine and even supply shortages. To this, political consultative conference suggest the government subsidies to children's drug policy, and establish a perfect mechanism of rational drug use.

        Children in China accounted for more than 20% of the total population, this undoubtedly is a huge medical groups, however, in the full of beautiful things in eyes of hospital drugs, and more than 90% of all have no children dosage form. In some the packing of the drugs specification, or even no children doses of regulation, only with "discretionary deliberate use" or "according to the guidance of medicine" and so on the fuzzy tips.

        The question is, "discretionary deliberate use", exactly what basis "emotion", to decide what "quantity"? Even if is "according to the guidance of medicine", in the drugs are not children dosage forms of situations, doctors often also is only half of each piece agent, or some such as one of the fuzzy Suggestions. Results children parents home to take medicine, also can only be about to, cause quantity is not much, is little, it is difficult to do accurate medication. Much may lead to drug adverse reactions, affect children's health and even endanger the life safety and less and affect curative effect.

        In this respect, we have had so many profound lessons. A lot of people are still remember, in July 2010, sichuan minjiang happened 133 people adverse drug reaction events, and eventually cause a three-year-old girl's death. And the subsequent investigation shows, caused the group adverse drug reaction the "culprits", it is the drug overdose. Just think, if these drugs according to different age groups launched dose of different specifications, let not the guidance of medication even can see understand oneself should take doses, tragedy is can avoid?

        Domestic pharmaceutical dosage form of lack of children bring another question, is serious waste. Especially some injection drugs, because only adult dosage form, children when use, can only use the half or one of the part. And this kind of injection drugs, once opened, will not continue to save, the rest of the drug can only when medical garbage, which not only caused the drug in serious waste of resources, which also increases the families of the children with economic burden.

        Thus it can be seen, the domestic pharmaceutical dosage form lack of children, should cause including medical and health system, pharmaceutical enterprise, the height of the whole society pay attention to. In this respect, the government should first of all make a difference, in children's medicine aspects give larger haircuts policy support, formulate more perfect rules and regulations. For example, in medical education training field to increase training pediatricians and pharmacists strength; For example by related departments organization and publish children dosage group of research and guidance work; Such as the urge and guide domestic pharmaceutical enterprise launch a variety of clinical drug "child form" and so on.
