Quick Look

식품의약품안전처는 처방 의약품과 유사한 이름을 사용하는 일반식품 생산을 제한하고, 정제·캡슐 형태 식품에 의약품이 아님을 명확히 표시하도록 제도를 개선하며, 온라인 단속을 위한 AI 시스템을 고도화하고 인체조직 미용 목적 사용 규제도 강화한다고 밝혔다.

의약품 오인 우려 식품 생산 제한·온라인 단속 확대

인체조직 미용 목적 광고 제한·부작용 보고 주기 단축

(서울=연합뉴스) 신선미 기자 = 오유경 식품의약품안전처장은 13일 "현장의 목소리를 바탕으로 안전의 빈틈은 줄이고 정책의 실효성은 높이겠다"고 말했다.

오 처장은 이날 열린 국회 보건복지위원회 국정감사에서 인사와 업무보고를 통해 이같이 말했다.

식약처는 식품 분야에서 부당한 광고로 인한 소비자 피해를 막기 위해 제도를 개선하고 단속을 강화하고 있다.

오 처장은 이와 관련해 "처방 의약품의 명칭이나 유사한 이름을 일반식품의 제품명으로 사용하는 것을 금지하고, 정제나 캡슐 형태의 일반식품 주표시면에 의약품 건강기능식품이 아님을 명확히 표시하도록 개선하겠다"고 밝혔다.

이어 "정제·캡슐 형태의 일반식품 중 의약품이나 건강기능식품으로 오인할 우려가 큰 제품은 생산을 제한하겠다"고 말했다.

또 "식품 부당광고 현장 대응 전담 조직을 통해 단속 실효성을 높이고, 의약품과 마약의 불법 유통을 모니터링하는 AI(인공지능) 캅스를 고도화해 온라인 식품 부당가구 감시에도 활용하겠다"고 밝혔다.

식약처는 인체조직 사용에 대한 규제도 강화하겠다고 강조했다.

오 처장은 "인체조직의 미용 목적 사용이 늘어남에 따라 미용 개선 목적 광고를 제한하고, 종사자에 대한 교육도 강화하겠다"고 밝혔다.

이어 "조직은행과 이식 의료기관의 부작용 보고 주기를 단축해 조기 대응체계를 갖추고, 인체조직을 사용한 사실을 사전에 환자에게 안내하는 등 투명성을 높여 가겠다"고 부연했다.

오 처장은 "식약처는 주요국의 관리체계를 조사해 인체조직 활용 제품의 안전관리 기준도 마련하겠다"고 강조했다.

이 밖에 식약처는 담배 유해 성분 분석·공개, 유전자변형식품(GMO) 표시 대상 확대, 의료용 마약류 불법 유통 근절, 희귀·난치 치료제 정부 직접 공급 확대 등의 정책을 이어가겠다고 밝혔다.

[Kim Gil-won's Health Note] Ambulance and medical staff communicate through app... “Stroke treatment shortened to 90 minutes”

Research results were announced showing that the ambulance-emergency room real-time information sharing system using the mobile app 'Brain Saver' developed by the Seoul National University College of Medicine research team shortened the time from symptom onset to first injection treatment in stroke patients by an average of 90 minutes compared to before. This study, based on a pilot project in the Pohang area, showed that digital technology can increase the speed of emergency medical care through efficient connection of medical resources.

[Health Focus] “Strengthening high blood pressure management can prevent approximately 510,000 deaths from cardiovascular disease per year.”

A research team at Johns Hopkins University in the United States analyzed data from 20 countries around the world and found that expanding hypertension control had the greatest effect on preventing death from cardiovascular disease. Increasing the current hypertension control rate from 20% to 80% could prevent more than 518,000 deaths per year, which is a greater effect than cholesterol-lowering drugs or diabetes management.
