On October 27, the 11th round of China’s National Centralized Drug Procurement Program officially opened, marking another important step in China’s ongoing healthcare reform aimed at improving drug accessibility, enhancing supply efficiency, and reducing public medical expenditure. As one of the most influential pharmaceutical procurement mechanisms in China, the national centralized procurement program continues to reshape the domestic pharmaceutical market by prioritizing product quality, supply stability, and cost-effectiveness.
Skyrun Pharma Co., Ld., a core subsidiary of Farmasino Co., Ltd. (“FarmaSino”), participated in the national centralized procurement program for the first time and achieved a notable breakthrough. The company’s Salbutamol Sulfate Injection was successfully selected, representing a significant milestone in FarmaSino’s participation in national-level pharmaceutical procurement programs. This achievement marks Skyrun Pharma’s formal entry into China’s national drug procurement system and reflects its steadily growing competitiveness within the pharmaceutical industry.
This successful bid not only highlights the strong market performance of Skyrun Pharma’s pharmaceutical products but also demonstrates the company’s expanding capabilities in generic drug development, pharmaceutical quality management, and participation in large-scale medical supply programs. It further underscores FarmaSino’s continuous efforts to strengthen its healthcare business portfolio and deepen its presence in both domestic and international pharmaceutical markets.

The winning product, Salbutamol Sulfate Injection (Approval No.: H20254900), is widely used in clinical practice for the treatment of respiratory diseases associated with bronchospasm. Its key indications include:
Other pulmonary conditions requiring rapid bronchodilation
Salbutamol Sulfate Injection plays an important role in both emergency and routine respiratory care due to its rapid onset of action and well-established clinical efficacy. The successful selection of this product in the national centralized procurement program demonstrates its clinical value, stable product quality, and strong competitiveness under a highly standardized and regulated evaluation system.
For Skyrun Pharma, this selection represents authoritative recognition of its pharmaceutical development and quality assurance capabilities.

This full-cycle capability ensures that each pharmaceutical product meets high standards of quality, safety, consistency, and regulatory compliance. The successful inclusion of Salbutamol Sulfate Injection in the national procurement program further validates Skyrun Pharma’s scientific rigor, robust quality management systems, and strong execution capabilities under the MAH model.
Ensuring Stable Supply and Supporting Public Health Development
Winning a bid under China’s national centralized drug procurement program also entails significant responsibility. In addition to offering high-quality pharmaceutical products, selected enterprises are required to ensure stable, continuous, and sufficient supply to healthcare institutions nationwide.
