E-DRUG: Prices of lab equipment, consumables and supplies? (2)
----------------------------------------------------------------

Dear E-druggers,

We have the experience from WHO for the establishment of health facilities which were destroyed due to massive earthquake of October, 2005 in Pakistan and AJK. 

  We have the practical unique experience in Pakistan. Thirty five BHUs and Twenty RHCs are constructed and equipped with drugs and other necessities by WHO in the disaster hit areas. These are the pre engineered constructions and its life is Thirty years but if maintained can be used for about One hundred years.

  For the prices from the catalogue of Unicef, the agency head should request to the Unicef head and receive the password for the detailed prices in Unicef Catalogue.

  But rest assured that each country has its own prices because of their own tarrif, freight, taxes, GDP, price control regulatory authorities and raw material prices.

  Like drugs of multinational companies in Pakistan are much economical (Although even more working hours are required in Pakistan to purchase these medicines).
