E-drug: HMGCoA inhibitors
-------------------------
Dear E-druggers,
excuse cross-posting of this request.
I need very urgently information about economic and administrative
matters related to statin prescription.
In the end of the week, there will be a session of an agreement
committte of Ministery of Health, which should decide whether to support
more restrictive policy to statins and fibrate prescription and what
amount of money they should ask from patients. The question of statins
is on the top of the agenda, because of their high purchase price.
One member of this committee asked me to find out some data from
European countries:
could you please write me,
