  • Objective To evaluate the affordability of oral antihypertensive drugs in Qingpu District within the basic medication system and provide a substantial evidence for rationalizing the price of essential drugs to treat chronic diseases in communities. Methods WHO/HAI standardized method and dilution method were used to evaluate the affordability of the oral antihypertensive drugs in that area. Results The results of WHO/HAI standardized method showed that patients with health insurance had better affordability for brand name and generic medications. The uninsured patients had lower affordability for brand name medications. The results of dilution method showed that 5 medications available both in brand and generic forms had a smaller gap in the poverty population. The affordability of the brand name drug, Irbesartan, is higher than its generics. Conclusion Health insurance plays an important role in improving the affordability for essential drugs. Reasonable pricing should be given to the commonly used medications with clear evidence based data to improve the affordability of antihypertensive drugs.
