E-DRUG: Blister packs

E-drug: Blister packs
---------------------------------------------

Dear e-druggers,

At Government Medical Stores, Zimbabwe, we are investigating
the use of blister packing TB drugs to assist in the DOTS (Direct
Observed Treatment Short Course) programme. Does anyone
have experience or suggestions as to

1. Where to get the materials for blister packing
2. Where to get the machine and /or approx cost
3. Does it make any difference to
    the patient
    the dispenser
    the bank balance

Please could you direct any comments to:
