Drugs Policy in Developing Countries de Najmi Kanji

Drugs Policy in Developing Countries

Autor Najmi Kanji, Anita Hardon, Gill Walt
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 aug 1992
This policy-relevant study grew out of an evaluation conducted by its authors - all scholars at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine and the Royal Tropical Institute, Amsterdam - of the World Health Organization's Action Programme on Essential Drugs. Their review, involving 13 country studies and WHO's five regional offices, looks at how the idea of a rational drug policy in developing countries came about, evaluates the achievements in specific countries, and discusses some of the issues that remain to be resolved - particularly issues around AIDs, contraception and cost recovery.It should prove useful to policy makers and academics, teachers and students, managers and professionals, as well as international agencies in the health field.

Recenzii

This book comes as a welcome reminder of the many efforts to develop policies for a more rational use of medecines. It provides a clear outline of some of the possible strategies to achieve change.
Anyone who wants to understand the limitations and constraints of developing and executing a global policy to improve health in developing countries will find this book essential reading.
The WHO has succeeded in making "essential drugs" a respected concept. This book documents this crucial step in the improvement of the supply of medicines for people in the South.
