E-DRUG: Availability / price of carbetocin? (2)
----------------------------------------------------
This is in response to a message posted by Raffaella Ravinetto dated 27
February 2021. Raffaella asked about up-to-date information on availability
and pricing in different contexts of a heat-stable formulation of carbetocin
that has been added to the WHO EML's21st Edition.
On 25 July this news item was published:
Women in India are the first to receive new heat-stable carbetocin
formulation to prevent excessive bleeding after childbirth

a-are-the-first-in-the-world-to-receive-new-heat-stable-carbetocin-formulati
on-to-prevent-excessive-bleeding-after-childbirth
I haven't found other information on the heat-stable formulation but
hopefully this helps.
