Are bedaquiline tablets available in China?

Bedaquiline tablets are mainly used to treat multidrug-resistant tuberculosis (MDR-TB). Multidrug-resistant TB is caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis that is resistant to traditional TB drugs such as isoniazid and rifampicin. Bedaquiline tablets are used as part of a comprehensive treatment regimen to improve treatment effectiveness and reduce the recurrence of drug-resistant tuberculosis. Bedaquiline tablets have been launched in China and have been included in Class B medical insurance. Patients can buy them domestically, but the price is very high. The price of 100mg*24 tablets is around 15,000 yuan. For specific prices, please consult the local hospital pharmacy. There are only original drugs abroad, and the more cost-effective ones are Russian original drugs. The price of 100mg*188 tablets is also about 15,000 yuan. The specifications are about 8 times that of domestic ones. Relatively speaking, the price is still very cheap compared to domestic ones. And the ingredients of domestic and foreign original drugs are consistent.
