Big news! Zhejiang pharmaceutical company targets 500 million yuan lipid-lowering blockbuster drug

Recently, the Center for Drug Evaluation (CDE) announced that the application for generic marketing of probucol tablets by Zhejiang Jiangbei Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. has been officially accepted.

Its most significant characteristic lies not in its lipid-lowering power, but in its unique multiple mechanisms of action: it can both lower cholesterol and slow the progression of atherosclerosis through antioxidant pathways, giving it an irreplaceable clinical role in niche indications such as familial hypercholesterolemia and xanthomas. According to data from Yaozhi, the domestic market size of probucol tablets has never been less than 400 million yuan since 2022, and reached 480 million yuan in 2025, representing a year-on-year increase of 5%.

【EXPERT Q&A】Should this inquiry be prioritized for follow-up when the buyer in the pharmaceutical foreign trade scenario starts to request the COA, specification sheet and samples?

Drugdu.com expert’s response: In pharmaceutical foreign trade, after receiving an inquiry, the hardest part is often not figuring out how to reply, but determining which one deserves more of your time investment. Some buyers only send a one-line message saying “Please send price”, while others directly list product specifications, quantities and destination countries.
