Recently, the State Administration of Market Supervision issued the Measures for the Supervision and Administration of Drug Online Sales (hereinafter referred to as the Measures), covering drug online sales management, platform management, supervision and inspection, legal liability, etc. For the first time, the new regulations have made detailed provisions on online sales of prescription drugs, requiring that online sales of prescription drugs adopt the real name system. Drug online retail enterprises should sign agreements with electronic prescription providers to review and allocate prescriptions in strict accordance with relevant regulations; Where a third-party platform accepts electronic prescriptions, it shall verify the situation of the electronic prescription provider and sign an agreement. Online sales of prescription drugs open, and the spring of people's livelihood is expected to gush out. Experts believe that the Measures clearly define the rights and responsibilities of all parties through traceability management, put forward higher requirements for all parties in the industrial chain, and blocked online loopholes such as "prescription before medicine", so as to effectively ensure drug safety while improving drug accessibility and supporting the development of emerging industries. As an important shopping method, online shopping has brought unprecedented convenience to people's lives. Although there are services such as "delivering drugs to home", most of them are over-the-counter drugs. Some patients who need prescription drugs can only buy them in hospitals or pharmacies. This has limited the development of this service to a certain extent and brought inconvenience to some patients. At present, Internet diagnosis and treatment are advancing by leaps and bounds, but prescription drugs cannot be sold online, resulting in online doctors being limited to "chatting". This also means that improving medical and people's livelihood through Internet diagnosis and treatment is faced with an embarrassing situation that there is no medicine available. Now the online prescription drugs are open, and these problems are bound to be solved. When opening the sluice gate to discharge water, we must also be alert to the overflow of prescription drugs. The harm of offline abuse of prescription drugs is already great. Once the abuse is "plugged into the wings of the Internet", it may break the geographical restrictions, quickly spread to many places, many areas, and far away, not only doubling the harm, but also leading to a substantial increase in the cost of law enforcement supervision. In addition, the Internet is also convenient for hiding identity. It is difficult to obtain evidence for illegal sales of prescription drugs online. To recover a chicken, one cow must be killed. Illegal acts may become reckless. In recent years, although the online sales of prescription drugs have not been really liberalized, the injury cases caused by illegal online sales of prescription drugs have been heard from time to time. Keeping the safety gate of selling prescription drugs online requires a lot of emphasis, but in the final analysis, it is to rectify the relationship between medicine and medicine. For ordinary goods, e-commerce orders to buy, mainly based on consumption intention, which has become a consumption habit. However, such e-commerce thinking can never be substituted into the field of online prescription drugs. Because medicine serves for medicine, there can be no medicine without it. If we prescribe medicine without diagnosis and treatment, or even allow consumers to buy prescription drugs at will, then the flood of abuse of prescription drugs will easily spread on the Internet. Whether the relationship between medicine and medicine can be straightened out depends on the prescription connecting the two. First there is a doctor, then there is a prescription to ensure that the prescription is symptomatic; Prescriptions should be given first, and then drugs should be given. Prescription drugs can only be used in appropriate places, and the maximum therapeutic effect and the minimum side effects should be ensured. Only by observing the order of medicine, prescription and medicine, and ensuring that they are authentic and credible, can online prescription drugs be strictly controlled and well used. Whether prescription drugs sold online can nourish people's livelihood or flood endangers safety depends on whether relevant rules are clear, whether supervision is in place, and whether people
