What are specific issues related to medicines for opportunistic infections?
A. We supply essential drugs that meet the standards for GMP, safety requirements, and that are efficacious. An approval process by USAID is required before SCMS can purchase using U.S. Government funds. If drugs must be registered for use in the country of destination, it can lead to a complex procurement process, as relatively few of the drugs used to treat opportunistic infections registered for use in developing countries are registered with the FDA or an equivalent stringent regulatory authority. We can fulfill your demand better if there is the option to obtain an importation waiver. The potential number of essential drugs that may be required is extensive. If a drug you need is not listed in our e-catalog, please contact us regarding your requirements.
