`nmpa_updates`

Pack: china-pharma · Connect: https://pipeworx.io/mcp (see Connect below for a single-pack URL)

No MCP client? Call it directly: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/nmpa_updates for the schema, then POST the same URL with its arguments for the data.

Official announcements from China’s drug regulator, the NMPA (National Medical Products Administration) — regulatory policy changes, guidance documents, import rules, clinical-trial guideline updates and reform opinions, in English, straight from the regulator. Answers “latest NMPA regulatory updates”, “what has China’s drug regulator changed”, “NMPA guidance on medical devices or cosmetics”. Returns title, publication date and the announcement URL. NOTE: this is the announcements feed, NOT the drug-approval register — it does not list which drugs were approved.

Parameters

Name	Type	Required	Description
`section`	string	no	Limit to one section. Omitted, all four are merged and sorted newest first.
`limit`	number	no	Maximum announcements, 1-40 (default 15).
