According to the public notice, the Shanghai Putuo District Market Supervision Administration has issued an administrative penalty decision letter to Casey Medicine of Italy. The type of illegal behavior is “the operator uses financial or other means to bribe to sell or purchase goods”.

On December 22nd, the CFDA and the General Office of the National Health Commission jointly issued a public consultation on the “Administrative Measures for the Registration and Recording of Medical Representatives (Trial) (Consultation Draft)”. The “Draft for Comment” focused on the fact that pharmaceutical representatives cannot undertake pharmaceutical sales tasks. It is not allowed to directly sell physical medicines, not to collect and process purchase and sales bills, to refrain from commercial bribery, to provide direct donation and sponsorship to departments and individuals within medical and health institutions, and to explicitly emphasize the specific contents of pharmaceutical representative activities: Academic promotion, technical consultation, assist medical staff to rationally use drugs, collect and feedback clinical use of drugs and adverse drug reaction information.

At present, in the CSO business field, non-compliant academic promotion marketing is reborn, academic marketing refers to academic-based, marketing as a form, and some companies understand academic marketing as a sales term. Previously recruited is "medical representative", and now recruiting is "academic agency", and without academics as the basis, all marketing is just a superficial effort, which is contrary to the current non-compliance in the field of pharmaceutical circulation.

Therefore, some analysts believe that the promotion and marketing transformation of pharmaceutical companies is urgent, including the transformation of thinking, multi-channel digital marketing.
