Drugs For Treating Anaemia (1)
******************************

Dear friends at India-drug,

Drug Action Forum - Karnataka, (http://daf-k.cjb.net/) an independent, not for profit, non government organization based in Karnataka state has brought out a publication titled "A Study on Drugs for Treating Anemia - A Campaign for Access to Essential Drugs" based on a study that it conducted. This publication of 54 pages is an attempt to bring to the notice of the consumer action groups, the plethora of antianaemia drugs available for the treatment of anemia in India. It gives sound guidance on selecting rational antianaemia preparations and reveals the inaction by the state authorities towards making these essential drugs available to the people who need them. It also reveals the profit maximizing behavior of the drug industry which includes the promotion of irrational, sometimes harmful and expensive medicines to the unsuspecting and helpless consumer.

Copies of this publication can be sent. For details please contact:-
