Healthy habits

- The pharmaceutical market in our country is constantly growing. Last year, statistics from the Drug Administration of Vietnam (Ministry of Health) showed that the total value of the pharmaceutical market in Vietnam reached about 7 billion USD. By 2026, the average spending per capita on medicine in our country is expected to be 2.12 million VND, one and a half times the spending in 2021.

- After a series of fake consumer goods cases were exposed, consumers are even more scared about the possibility of fake drugs. Is this really scary?

- Through screening, the rate of counterfeit medicines was recorded as very low, only 0.06% of the total number of samples tested. Consumers' concerns are justified, because health and life issues do not spare anyone. However, the increased consumption of medicines shows another aspect of risk for the community.

- What exactly is that?

- If you are healthy, why take medicine? Hospitals have modern equipment but are crowded, only a minority is happy. As for the majority, frequent hospital visits or increased spending on medicine are bad signs for health.

- So how to… be less weak?

- In hospitals, both infectious and non-infectious patients are increasing. From the perspective of daily life, the deciding factor for health or illness lies in habits. To be healthy and reduce medical expenses, it is necessary to maintain healthy habits.
