Synthesis

On September 2, 2026, Jiangxi Heying Pharmaceutical's Prunella vulgaris oral liquid received an NMPA registration certificate (Guoyao Zhunzi Z20263002) and was approved for marketing. The single-herbal-ingredient oral liquid, classified as a prescription drug under medical insurance category B, is described as the third same-name same-formula traditional Chinese medicine nationally and in practice the first approved without a technical linkage. Its approval ends Guiyang Xintian Pharmaceutical's long-standing monopoly on the product, opening the market to a second player. What market share Jiangxi Heying can capture, and whether further approvals of same-name same-formula traditional Chinese medicines follow, is still open.
