The Ministry of Health has warned pharmacies and private clinics not to sell antiretrovirals (ARVs) – medication distributed free by the government to thousands of patients to slow the progression of HIV – after the meds were recently available for purchase at pharmacies.

Officials don’t know how the pharmacies got the medication, said Dr Ly Penh Sun, director of the National Center for HIV/AIDS, Dermatology and STDs, noting that it could have been resold by patients or come from the Central Medical Stores (CMS) – a warehouse where the Health Ministry stores the medication.

“It’s not known how it got to the pharmacies,” he said. “We are not sure that it’s from the Central Medical Stores. We don’t have to speculate before the investigation.”

Well it would be extremely easy to find where it came from... All medicines are labled with a LOT CODE/EXPIRE DATE!!! From this information it is known

Manufacturer

Distributor

Supplier

Wholesaler

Seller

Those who do not understand... Have much to learn! 20 minutes with correct information you will know when Manufactured, by who and up to when sold. If recall for problems in a Batch... This is how everything is located!
