The medical field of patent protection

In the field of medicine, many drugs are also protected by patents, and often when the patents are about to expire, there will be a research boom on this product. In China, a large number of groups have a weak awareness of intellectual property rights and pay little attention to patent protection. This phenomenon will also occur in the pharmaceutical industry. There is no doubt that this is a bad phenomenon. We can pay attention to specialist protection from the following aspects:

First, improve the legal protection system of intellectual property rights of traditional Chinese medicine with patent protection as the main body to form a complete and comprehensive protection system.

Second, improve the awareness of intellectual property protection of traditional Chinese medicine.

Third, strictly determine the scope of patentability in the field of Chinese medicine.

Fourth, improve the examination standards of Chinese medicine invention patents.

Fifth, establish specialized institutions and industrial intellectual property protection organizations for intellectual property protection of traditional Chinese medicine.

In today's knowledge economy era, with the popularization and improvement of intellectual property knowledge, people will pay more and more attention to using patents as weapons to protect their intellectual property rights, and Chinese medicine patents will have great development.
