First, the way to understand the drug price problem.
When the drug price is questioned, the public can first consult the official channels, such as the drug price publicity platform, the competent price department official website, and the drug supervision and management department, to understand the pricing basis and price standards of drugs. These platforms usually publish the highest retail price or guidance price of drugs for public reference.

If you think the drug price is unreasonable, you can report it to the local price department. The competent price department will supervise and adjust the drug price according to relevant laws, regulations and policies. The public can provide information and questions about drug prices to the price authorities by telephone, email or on-site consultation, and seek solutions.
Third, complain to the drug supervision and administration department.
In addition to the price department, the public can also complain about the price of drugs to the drug supervision and administration department. The drug supervision and administration department is responsible for the supervision and management of the drug market, and ensures the rationality of drug quality and price. The public can report the drug price problem to the drug supervision and administration department through the complaint telephone number, complaint mailbox or online complaint platform, and request it to investigate and deal with it.
Fourth, seek legal aid.
If the public thinks that the drug price problem involves the legal level, they can seek legal assistance. By consulting local law firms or legal aid agencies, the public can get legal advice and help on drug prices and safeguard their legitimate rights and interests.
