Ministry of Food and Drug Safety Ministry of Food and Drug Safety Evaluation_Information on the origin of herbal medicine approval

Information on the origin of approval for herbal medicine preparations is provided as pharmaceutical approval information on the public data portal (www.data.go.kr/data/15095677/openapi.do), allowing users to search for the product, main ingredient, origin (scientific name, country of origin), approval number, date, and orphan status of herbal medicine preparations. This system supports data through an open API based on the Pharmaceutical Affairs Act and emphasizes proof of origin for preparations excluding herbal medicines (such as decoctions). It is supplemented by the NIFDS portal (nifds.go.kr) and can be searched in real time through an integrated search (nedrug.mfds.go.kr/searchDrug). This information is operated according to the Manufacturing and Sales Reporting and Review Regulations and reflects the preservation policy by including 200 rare preparations in 2023. File expansion is possible through public portal applications, and approval trends (domestic and imported) are analyzed in conjunction with e-National Index (www.index.go.kr) statistics. Supports industrial development by adding audit functions in accordance with GMP and data integrity guidelines.
