Retail pharmacies in China are growing owing to favourable regulations and policies. One such policy is the “dual channel” system that allows medicines that are on the National Reimbursement Drug List (NRDL) to be sold and reimbursed at both designated hospitals and retail pharmacies. China has also permitted the online sales of prescription drugs since December 2022. These policies and regulations allow patients to obtain prescriptions from hospitals but purchase medicines from pharmacies outside the hospital.
The key players in the market are enhancing their online and offline distribution networks to improve their market share.
