E-drug: Selection files (cont)
---------------------------------------------
Dear Richard,
Congratulations with an excellent exercise!
I have not yet looked thoroughly through all files, but have a comment to
the file you mention specifically, the number of countries having the drug
on their national list. When looking through it, I think it is important to
note that because the current WHO list may have the same substance in the
same formulation(s) in more than one place, the same substance may
appear as being listed on one or two national lists, or on all 12. I
have so far
spotted the following:
- calcium gluconate
- chloroquine (even 2 times on page 4, same group)
- epinephrine (adrenaline) (in 3 places)
- carbamazepine
- hydrochlorothiazide (in 3 places)
- valproic acid
- morphine
- atenolol (in 3 places)
- diazepam
- digoxin
May be it is possible for your team to do something about it?
(and the comparative table is called comparative tablet...)
