Les conséquences néfastes de la mauvaise gestion et les faits de corruption dans le domaine de la
santé ont amené l’Organisation mondiale de la Santé (OMS) à mettre en place depuis 2004, un
programme de bonne gouvernance qui vise à améliorer les mesures de transparence dans
l’exercice... des fonctions du secteur pharmaceutique.
Notre pays, le Bénin, ayant souscrit à ce programme en 2007, l’OMS a commis des experts qui ont
procédé à l’évaluation des fonctions essentielles du secteur pharmaceutique public béninois.
De l’analyse des résultats de cette évaluation réalisée conformément aux normes admises par
l’OMS en la matière, il ressort qu’en République du Bénin, la gestion des produits
pharmaceutiques dans le secteur public présente une vulnérabilité modérée à la corruption.
Sur les six (06) fonctions ayant fait l’objet de l’évaluation, seule celle liée au contrôle de la
promotion des médicaments présente une forte vulnérabilité à la corruption en raison de la faible
note de 3,428 sur 10 dont elle a été créditée.

Emergence of antimicrobial resistance is a result of the use, overuse and misuse of antibiotics both in humans and animals. In Ethiopia, there are indications on the misuse of antibiotics by health care providers’, unskilled practitioners, and drug consumers. These coupled with rapid spread of res...istant bacteria and inadequate surveillance contributed to the problem. Bacterial infections are the major causes of death in Ethiopia. Studies on antibacterial resistance and on bacterial infections have shown that emerging antibacterial resistance threatens the management of bacterial infections; however, the prevention and containment has received far too little attention.

The Leishmaniasis East Africa Platform (LEAP) was established to support the generation of scientific evidence for the development and distribution of new treatments for leishmaniasis in Eastern Africa.
To support its R&D activities on Chagas disease, DNDi launched the Chagas Clinical Research Platform (CCRP). The platform brings together partners, experts, and stakeholders to provide support for evaluation and development of new treatments for Chagas disease. The patient-centred platform aims to f...acilitate clinical research, provide a forum for technical discussions, develop a critical mass of expertise, and strengthen institutional research capacities. In addition, it identifies and reviews priority needs, works towards standardization of methodology to assess drug efficacy and reviews alternatives for using current approved drugs (new schemes, doses, combination) and special scenarios (resistance).

DNDi’s long-term goal for sleeping sickness, also known as human African trypanosomiasis (HAT), is to develop and register two new drugs that are effective against both Stage 1 and Stage 2 of the disease and both subspecies of the parasite, T.b. gambiense and T.b. rhodesiense. T.b. rhodesiense is ...an acute form of the disease, occurring primarily in Eastern and Southern Africa. Better treatments for T.b. rhodesiense sleeping sickness are urgently needed.

A summary of the national drug situation
In order to streamline and effectively control compounding of medicinal products in hospitals and pharmacies, these Guidelines for Production of Extemporaneous and Hospital Based Sterile Preparations has been crafted. The purpose of these guidelines therefore is to assist pharmacists in ...discharging their legal and professional obligations to patients in the area of extemporaneous dispensing. This guidance will help to assure the safe and appropriate preparation and supply of extemporaneously prepared medicinal products to patients, where
the supply of such products is necessary.
Extemporaneous and hospital based sterile preparations are critical for patients whose clinical needs cannot be met by registered medicinal products. The guidelines outline the principles and application of the concepts of Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) requirements for premises, equipment, personnel, storage, quality management system, quality control, compounding processes as well as documentation.
