According to Healthoo.com's monitoring, the prices of some big-size APIs increased recently. For example, the price of Penicillin G increased by 1-2￥/bou to 58-60￥/bou; The price of Erythromycin Thiocyanate increased to 330￥/kg from 300 ￥/kg. The supply of Ciprofloxacin Hcl, Levofloxacin and Norfloxacin is inadequate and their pirces increased by 10-30￥/kg.
This is because most producers decreased the outputs in January, while from February the order forms suddenly increased, so the outputs can't meet the demand in short time. It is expected that the tense supply will be eased by late March.
