TCM Granules in Prescriptions refer to standardized granulated formulations produced from single-herb decoction pieces through modern pharmaceutical processes such as extraction, concentration, separation, drying, and granulation. Under the guidance of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) theory, these granules are prescribed and compounded by physicians and administered through oral dissolution. Combining the therapeutic philosophy of TCM with industrial-level quality control, they offer advantages such as no decoction requirement, precise dosage, portability, and consistent quality, making them a key vehicle for the modernization and standardization of TCM, and a substitute for traditional herbal decoctions.The average gross profit margin of this product is 55%.

Driven by the “Healthy China” strategy and continuous policy support for TCM revitalization, TCM granules are entering a new phase of full market liberalization after the pilot period. The removal of regulatory restrictions and the establishment of unified national standards have significantly expanded market capacity and improved industry standardization. Increasing demand from healthcare institutions for standardized and traceable medicines further accelerates hospital penetration. In addition, aging populations and rising chronic disease prevalence are expanding long-term demand, reinforcing the role of TCM granules in primary care and chronic disease management.With market liberalization, the number of competitors has increased rapidly, breaking previous licensing barriers and intensifying competition under stricter regulatory frameworks. Enhanced national standards for active ingredient content, quality control, and testing systems have raised production costs and compressed margins. Transitional inconsistencies in standard implementation and product registration may lead to short-term supply disruptions. Moreover, volatility in upstream raw material supply and pricing further increases operational uncertainty, potentially reshaping industry concentration.On the demand side, TCM granules are expanding beyond traditional TCM hospitals into general hospitals, primary care institutions, and digital healthcare platforms. Patients’ preference for convenience and standardized treatment is accelerating the substitution of traditional decoctions. Meanwhile, trends toward personalized medicine and chronic disease management are fostering integration with digital healthcare solutions, enabling a shift from product-based to service-oriented models. Growing global acceptance of TCM also opens opportunities for international expansion and export markets.The core raw materials for TCM granules are Chinese medicinal herbs and decoction pieces, whose quality directly determines product efficacy and consistency. Strengthened national standards require higher levels of authenticity, active ingredient control, and traceability, driving upstream cultivation and processing toward standardization and scale. However, herb production remains subject to climate, geographic distribution, and cyclical supply-demand dynamics, resulting in significant price volatility. As a result, supply chain integration, origin-based sourcing, and long-term procurement strategies are becoming critical competitive factors for manufacturers.
