Currently about 60 % of the prescribed medications in Taiwan are made domestically. But pharmaceutical manufacturers are not under the jurisdiction of the DOH for Y2K matters. Problematically, they are not likely to get priority attention from their governing agency, the Industrial Development Bureau, because the total value of their production is not great.
此外，國內百分之六十左右的處方用藥，是來自本土廠商，而藥廠屬於製造業，不在衛生署列管範圍內，但由於製藥業產值不大，也不會是工業局優先輔導的廠商。
