Story facts:
An infant born from a very disadvantaged population that goes to the hospital, including a respiratory and cardiac symptoms rather severe.
After much exploration, an echocardiogram is performed and the diagnosis of primary pulmonary hypertension (pulmonary hypertension).
This pathology is rare. The case is presented to leaders in the field of cardiology and respiratory medicine in Tunisia, which all conclude with the need to put in Sildenafil, a drug that has proven successful in the treatment of primary pulmonary hypertension and has the merit not co Uter arm and a leg like other proposed Medoc.
But the kicker in history is that Sildenafil is the gentle trade name Viagra ® , a substance known to relax blood vessels especially Blood improving the quality of erectile function, effective in 80% of cases of impotence.
Yes! So far nothing really bad.
Asked about the reasons for the ban in Tunisia, Mr. Kamel Idir, head of the management of pharmacy and medicine in the department of public health reports Tunisia has other priorities first and last, the Medoc could cause death if taken improperly without observing the usual precautions.
Having been passing through a service Urology, a few years ago, I can assure you that impotence is a very common reason for consultation. This is understandable and legitimate. These unfortunates are turning to a black market booming. A drug that cost three times as if nothing was officially commissioned by the Department of Public Health it is sold on the sly to skyrocketing prices ...
's worse is that beyond the non-granting of marketing authorization (permission marketing) for this substance, it is also forbidden to own even if you arrive at t ' procure by means as devious and costly they may be.
Regarding the responses of Kamel Idir, it is clear that Tunisia has other priorities. But the treatment of erectile dysfunction is also a priority sir. Make a survey in good and due form and you'll see. When you know that a simple blue pill may change the lives of hundreds of thousands of families ... When we know that the WHO defines health as: "U No state of complete physical, mental and social and not merely not merely the absence of disease or infirmity . "
C'en becomes clear as import Viagra ® is also a priority.
As for your second argument, you know as much as I do, that the could be important in this product, integrate it into a very strict legislation making marketing very controlled and subject to many obstacles and at different levels. (See Table B substances)
Unless all this stubbornness is due merely yet another case of nepotism . That does not surprise me, I do not hide it.
Returning, still the case that I originally wanted to raise in this article. That of the infant who needs Viagra ® to exist.
Are you able to deny him his right to receive care?
Are you able to deny a simple exemption?
Responses pharmacists are distressing. This medicine is purely and simply banned in Tunisia. In other words, there is no way to negotiate.
Note that the patient in question has in parallel a multitude of flaws and that at best it would resemble more than anything else of palliative, improving the quality of what he left to live.
Let me anyway, except the respect I owe you, to express my deepest sorrow and disgust at financial calculations, disgusting and inhumane that do not even account the views of infants (or sick + / - older) person who has asked anything.
Hoping to have brutally and fiercely defended the rights of those left behind who do not know the top of the information the abyss of civilization.
