Why can’t you bargain when buying medicine?

Whether medicine is huge profits lies in the fact that consumers (or patients) do not understand this industry.

In fact, the medicine we are talking about should include both medicine and medicine.

But because of our system, medicine cannot be separated, resulting in huge profits in some links.

I have been engaged in pharmaceutical wholesale for 6 years. For our commercial company, if the sales profit of pharmaceuticals is above 5, it is considered a high gross profit. Which industry can have such a low profit. In addition, the current business management model is backward, and we often say that we are advanced porters.

The current average gross profit of pharmacies does not exceed 20, and it is even lower in some big cities. The absolute gross profit of terminal sales in other industries is above 20%.

Then why do people still say medicine is expensive?

The reason lies in hospitals. Expensive varieties in hospitals are not sold in pharmacies. Doctors’ gray income depends on prescribing expensive drugs.

In order to seek medical treatment in time, patients do not even have the possibility to choose similar products, let alone bargaining. Of course, this is a very professional matter, and they have no chance to choose similar products.

I know now that it is best not to go to the hospital when you are sick. Sometimes hospitals treat minor illnesses and overuse antibiotics, which is harmful to the body!

There are many promotions in pharmacies now. Medicines are just like other commodities. Not only are the prices lower, but some private pharmacies can negotiate prices.
