The difference between health food and medicine, the difference between health food and health medic

1. The approval number of drugs and health foods is different, look at the approval number on the package or label.

The approval number of the drug is: the national drug quasi-word H (or digits", which means that the State Food and Drug Administration approved the production and marketing of drugs, the letter H represents chemical drugs, Z Chinese patent medicines, S biological products, J imported drugs in domestic sub-packaging, B drugs with auxiliary roles, F pharmaceutical excipients.

There are two types of approval numbers for health care products, one is; The approval number of the State Food and Drug Administration: Guoshijian word G (J), the letter G refers to domestic J refers to import. There is also the approval number of the Ministry of Health:

Wei Shi Jian Zi (Wei Shi Jian Jin Zi). In addition, it is stipulated that the special logo of the health care product must be marked above the packaging or label: "blue hat", a pattern similar to a blue hat, with the words health food underneath, and the approval number below the four words of health food.

2. Drugs have detailed instructions. However, health food does not have a detailed instruction manual, only a brief introduction.

3. Drugs are substances with specified indications or functional indications, usage and dosage. However, health food is only suitable for the population, and has no indications and functional indications.

4. Drugs are used to prevent, diagnose and diagnose human diseases. However, health food is not for the purpose of disease, and health food cannot replace medicine for disease.

5. Drugs are allowed to have a certain amount of ***. Health food does not cause any acute, subacute or chronic harm to the human body.

6. Health food is mainly absorbed by the intestine through the mouth. The drug can be injected intramuscularly, intravenously, administered, orially administered, oral, etc.

Hello: 1. Medical food is not the same as health care products, health care products are mainly designed for non-diseased people with sub-healthy physical fitness, individuals can choose to take according to their own conditions, without the guidance of doctors or nutritionists, health care products have a wide range of applications, but these groups do not necessarily need to take health care products. Because these groups are not strictly patients.

2. The medical food is mainly designed for patients in the recovery period or people with weak physique, and the nutritious diet is designed according to the special nutritional needs of patients in different recovery stages. These people are unable to eat normally due to the limitation of their own body functions or the daily diet can not provide enough nutrients for supplementation, which inevitably requires the consumption of medical food, for patients who cannot eat normally, they can replace the daily diet with medical food under the guidance of doctors or dietitians, because the medical food formula design is targeted, the nutritional supplement is more perfect, and it is easy to digest.

3. In short, health care products are mainly suitable for non-sick people, and medical food consumption is a particularly weak group of people, and health care products cannot replace diet, while medical food can completely replace diet.

The course of treatment of drugs is to be listened to by the doctor, and the effect of nutrition products is to be listened to by the dietitian; Medicines are for curing diseases, and nutrition is for disease prevention; The doctor said: nutrition products cannot replace medicines; The dietitian said: medicine cannot replace nutrition.

In addition to what others say, medicine is for curing diseases, and health food is for health care. It is a three-point poison of medicine, and the toxicity of health food is small.

1。The function is not the same: medicine is to cure diseases, and health food is to help improve the body.

2。Product approvals are not the same. The drug is: the national medicine standard word and the health food is: the national food health word.

Is it illegal to exaggerate the effect of health products?

In 2003, the health food approval function originally undertaken by the Ministry of Health was transferred to the State Food and Drug Administration, and the domestic health food approval number approved by the State Food and Drug Administration after 2003 was formatted as: national food health word g + 4-digit era number + 4-digit sequence number; The format of the approval number of imported health food is: national food health word J + 4-digit era number + 4-digit sequence number.

Before 2003, the Ministry of Health approved health products with the number of Wei Shi Jian Zi (year) No. ***. ”

Health care products only have health care functions, and have no disease effects.

There is no such thing as a health care drug, a drug is a drug, and the approval number of the drug is the national medicine standard word + one letter + eight digits. Of course, there is a somewhat special drug in China, that is, from the health care products approved before the clean-up, there are very few confirmed to have the efficacy of ** disease, approved by the State Food and Drug Administration to turn into drugs, and its approval number is the national drug quasi-word b + eight-digit number.

On March 7, 2000, the Drug Administration (now the State Food and Drug Administration) issued a notice on the rectification of traditional Chinese medicine health care drugsNational medicine standard word bYesPassedNational MedicineSupervisory AuthorityRectifiedHealth care medicines, which uses the letter "b". Since January 1, 2003, the production of all health care products of "Yaojianzi" has been discontinued. From January 1, 2004, the circulation and use of traditional Chinese medicine and health care drugs will be prohibited, that is, the "Jian" brand varieties shall not be sold in the market.

After the re-examination and approval of traditional Chinese medicine health care drugs will be unified into drug management, its approval number is expressed as "national medicine quasi-word B", cancel the "Yaojian word" number, at that time more than 3,000 kinds of "Yaojian word" health care products, will be divided into two parts, one part to the then Food and Drug Administration to apply for "Yaozhun word", the other part to the Ministry of Health to apply for "Shijian word" or "Shizhun word". As of now (February 17, 2016), the State Food and Drug Administration has retainedNational drug approval number Bof medicines altogether1033 pcs。Guoshi Jianzi G is a food with health care effects, which belongs to the management of health food, while Guoyao Zhun Zi B, oneIt is a medicine with health benefitsThere is no doubt that it belongs to the scope of drug management, if you do not consider the background of the times, then there is no difference between such varieties and ordinary Chinese medicine, that is, the national medicine standard word z.

The varieties of the national medicine quasi-word B will not be approved in the future, that is to say, the "national medicine quasi-word B" is just a mark of the times.

Let's take a look and reply. Don't pretend to understand. It is not at all "cleaning up previously approved health products", but health care drugs that have "passed the State Drug Administration".

Health food belongs to the category of food, not medicine.

Health products are a popular term for health foods. Article 16740-97 of the General Standard for Health (Functional) Foods defines health food as: "Health (functional) food is a type of food, which has the commonality of general food, can regulate the functions of the human body, and is suitable for specific groups of people to eat, but not for the purpose of disease."

Health food contains a certain amount of functional ingredients, which can regulate the functions of the human body, have specific effects, and are suitable for specific groups of people. General food does not have a specific function, and there is no specific range of people to eat. Health food cannot be directly used for ** diseases, it is a regulator of human body mechanism and nutritional supplement.

And the medicine is directly used for ** diseases.
