Abstract
Upon the analysis of export situation of domestic drugs, this essay finds theoretical support from Michel Foucault’s discourse analysis theory (including “external systems of exclusionâ€, “internal systems of exclusionâ€, and “restrictions on discourse subjectâ€), probes into the writing features of English medical instructions in view of some social factors, and finally brings about some favorable writing guidance for export pharmaceutical English instructions.
