E-drug: Management of essential drugs utilisation (cont'd)
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Norman,
Being a public health physician I understand what you mean with
"management of essential drugs utilisation." To me it means:
- Knowing the names of essential drug in my area
- Appreciating the fact that I don't have to go for expensive fancy
drugs to cure the majority of diseases in the general population.
- Some economic comparison of essential drugs with others.
- And I expect that I should be provided with clear data of use or
misuse of drugs in my area and how much money my local
government or any other authority can have by properly utilising
drugs.
- Plus the advocacy techniques to target the physicians for rational
use.
Sincerely
