Rezeptpflicht wird hinfällig

Windhoek (ms) - Der Apothekerverband hat dem Gesundheitsministerium und dem Medikamenten-Regulierungsrates (MRSCA) eine außergerichtliche Einigung abgerungen, wonach jene die im Januar vergangenen Jahres verfügte Rezeptpflicht für eine Medikamente wieder rückgängig gemacht haben. Weil die Kläger damit ihr Anliegen verwirklicht haben, werden die Antragsgegner die Rechtskosten von rund 630000 N$ übernehmen.

Durch die Einigung, die am Mittwoch von Vize-Oberrichter Hosea Angula angenommen und damit rechtskräftig wurde, werden wieder sämtliche Medikamente von der Rezeptpflicht befreit, die die Wirkstoffe Kodein, Capsaicin, Heparin und Ipratropium enthalten. Ferner dürfen wieder Präparate mit den Vitaminen A, B, C, D und K frei verkauft und einige Impfstoffe ohne Rezept verabreicht werden, die vorher in ihrer Klassifizierung hochgestuft worden waren.

Die Rezeptpflicht war unter anderem wegen der Sorge eingeführt worden, dass einige der davon betroffenen Substanzen zu Abhängigkeit führen könnten. Der Apothekenverband hat inzwischen an seine rund 500 registrierte Mitglieder appelliert, mit der durch die Einigung erreichten Lockerung verantwortungsvoll umzugehen. Zwar wolle man Patienten die von ihnen benötigte Arznei unbürokratisch bereitstellen, aber gleichzeitig einen sicheren Umgang damit gewährleisten. Dies gelte vor allem für Schmerzmittel, die Kodein enthalten und die aufgrund der Rezeptpflicht vielen Einwohnern nicht mehr verfügbar gewesen seien.
