Ms. Tian, who lives in Yixian County, Anhui Province, was plagued by alopecia areata in the past. After her diagnosis and treatment in a large hospital, the doctor recommended an over-the-counter drug for alopecia areata. After taking medicine, her symptoms of alopecia areata improved, but affected by the epidemic, she could not continue to go to the hospital to get medicine. "It's very convenient to place an order by mobile phone and deliver it home by express." Ms. Tian found the same drug in the medical and health care area of the third-party mobile platform with the suggestion of her friend. A few days after placing the order, she received the medicine and successfully used it. "Now, I and my family buy common drugs online," Ms. Tian said. In addition to over-the-counter drugs, some people are still making further visits online and buying prescription drugs. "Hello, doctor, how about my blood pressure control recently?

With the help of her daughter, she used her mobile phone to make an appointment with a cardiovascular physician from a top three hospital in an Internet hospital. After carefully reviewing Aunt Yan's past diagnosis and medication records, the doctor made a follow-up visit and explained the correct use of the drug in detail. Considering Aunt Yan's life at home, the doctor also provided suggestions on diet allocation, exercise, attitude maintenance, etc. After the return visit, Aunt Yan used her mobile phone to place an order for the prescription medicine issued by the doctor in the online pharmacy, and received the express delivery the next day. "You can go to see a doctor and get medicine without leaving home, so don't worry about having no medicine at home!" said Aunt Yan.
