It’s a right for consumers to have their medicines at home for their specific treatment to recover. But the problem now is that usually a lot of unfamiliar product are been introduce to health care settings because the product of the consumer is unavailable and then the clinical places are obligate to change it to unfamiliar products. That increase the risk of safety in the medicines, because is not the adequate treatment.

The government should be in charge to maintain an adequate flow of these products for the only benefit of the patient, there should be more regulation with manufactures so the medicines could be on time.  There should be enough time for the manufactures to inform the clinical department of any product that is going to be discontinuing so the patient would be inform.

The people that are suffering from cancer, hypertension, diabetes and other problems are the more affected, because they don’t have their medicines on time, and they have to find alternative ways to relieve the pain and continue their treatment.

What do you think is the most common cause of the drug shortages problem???

I think that is a real problem because the most affected are the patients. the goverment should be more aware of this situation because it's their responsabilities to maintain a good flow of medicines that is the treatment for the patient.
