Traditional drugs finding new respect in Europe, US
Chengdu Diao Pharmaceutical Group Co, the biggest pharmaceutical company in western China by revenue, is expanding its presence in Europe as it pursues a stronger foothold in a tough market that's had limited access to traditional Chinese medicine.
President Li Bogang says the company is in the process of registering its core product - Diao Xin Xue Kang capsules - in the United Kingdom and Germany. The product was licensed by the Dutch Medicines Evaluation Board in 2012, making it the first TCM drug to receive marketing authorization in a Western country.
