The history of Tianjin Institute of Pharmaceutical Research (TIPR) for more than 60 years is the epitome of the development of new China’s pharmaceutical industry. As time goes on, TIPR has become an important member in the health industry of China Merchants Group, and is still flourishing, walking more and more firmly and confidently on the road of pharmaceutical innovation.
Innovation is the spirit of Tianjin Institute of Pharmaceutical Research. From the “Vitamins, Antibiotics, Hormones and Sulfonamides”, which filled the gap of Chinese medicine, to the first dripping pills “Suxiao Jiuxin Pill”, the first soft capsule preparation “Maren Soft Capsules”, the first Class II new drug “Indapamide”, and the exclusive product “Agatroban” and “Adefovir”, more than 200 new drug certificates are the achievements of the continuous pursuit of innovation by the generations of TIPR.
Reform is the main line of innovation and development of Tianjin Institute of Pharmaceutical Research. The development of TIPR experienced three important stages, from a central government-affiliated institution, to a state-owned enterprise in Tianjin, to a mixed-ownership enterprise belonging to a central enterprise. TIPR has blazed a development path with its own distinctive characteristics by keeping innovation according to the development of the times.
Struggle is the heritage of the enterprise spirit of TIPR. “Revitalizing the pharmacy through science and technology is for the good of all mankind” is the original intention and mission of TIPR, and it is the responsibility and motivation for generations of scientists and technicians to make continuous progress in scientific and innovative achievements. Contributing new drugs and good drugs to the society and applying the technology and products to the motherland is the greatest value we can achieve.
