伊朗医疗费用大幅上涨,导致越来越多患者推迟或放弃必要治疗。一名70岁的乳腺癌患者因每次化疗费用约100亿伊朗图曼(约530美元/450欧元)而推迟化疗疗程,该费用相当于伊朗最低月工资的6倍1。患者自付医疗费用的比例已从30%上升至70%以上1。
伊朗药品价格出现大幅上涨。一家制药公司的82种产品平均涨价约120%,部分药物涨幅更为惊人,其中多诺哌齐上升543%,克拉霉素上升308%,阿莫西林上升115%1。胰岛素使用者受冲击最大,NovoRapid胰岛素笔的月处方费用从约28万图曼飙升至约110万图曼1。癌症药物Keytruda在伊朗的版本售价约70亿图曼,而印度进口版本则约需300亿图曼1。
药物短缺问题进一步加剧了这一危机。伊朗议会卫生委员会发言人Salman Eshaghi表示,约43种药物处于"严重短缺"状态,近1000种药物面临不同程度短缺1。伊朗食品药品监管部门负责人Mehdi Pirsalehi指出,战争开始后外汇转账大幅放缓,曾停滞1至2个月1。伊朗中央银行行长表示,前5个月医疗药物外汇分配比去年同期增加30%1。
这场卫生危机的根源在于多重压力:货币贬值、美国制裁、供应链中断以及战争经济后果,共同加重了伊朗卫生系统的困境1。
Escalating medication and treatment expenses are pushing Iranian patients to postpone or forgo necessary care, as the country's health system faces mounting pressure from currency depreciation, international sanctions, and supply chain disruptions.1 A 70-year-old breast cancer patient has delayed chemotherapy sessions that cost approximately 10 billion Iranian toman per treatment—equivalent to about $530 or €450—a sum representing six times the nation's minimum monthly wage.1
Pharmaceutical prices have surged dramatically across Iran's market. One major pharmaceutical company increased prices on 82 products by an average of 120%, with certain medications rising far more steeply: donepezil climbed 543%, clarithromycin 308%, and amoxicillin 115%.1 Insulin users face particularly acute challenges, as monthly prescription costs for NovoRapid insulin pens jumped from approximately 280,000 toman to roughly 1.1 million toman.1 Cancer medications have become increasingly unaffordable, with the Iranian version of Keytruda priced at around 70 billion toman, while the imported Indian variant costs approximately 300 billion toman.1
The shortage crisis extends beyond pricing. Iran's parliamentary health committee spokesperson Salman Eshaghi identified approximately 43 medications in "severe shortage" status, while nearly 1,000 drugs face varying degrees of supply constraints.1 Out-of-pocket expenses for patients have climbed sharply, rising from 30% to over 70% of treatment costs.1 Officials attributed recent supply complications to significantly slowed foreign currency transfers since the start of the war, with transfers halting for one to two months at certain points, according to Mehdi Pirsalehi, head of the food and drug regulatory authority.1
