The Public Pharmacovigilance Service (VVKT) has more comments on the situation today than tomorrow morning.
Although IWT reports that because of this misunderstanding, the manufacturer of UAB Santonika badumes full responsibility, the shadow of the VVKT falls due to the delay in the disclosure of l & # 39; information.
Although IWT discovered boxes confiscated on July 20 (Friday), this information was published on the official website only after the weekend – July 23, and no media outlet was found. distributed this authorization. The news agency found this information Tuesday and distributed the report to representatives of the IWT after almost a day
The information seems to be piquant both on weekends and in the Press release. This was not prevented by the MP Agnė Širinskienė, the Ministry of Health is also investigating the situation.
"Why was IWT so late? More than 800 residents of Lithuania were able to buy medicines with sachets mixed: an unknown amount of Morphin SANITAS ampoules was packaged in another drug – atropine sulfate SANITAS.While IWT itself qualifies such an event as a defect in quality of clbad I drug, which threatens the health and life of people, the subsequent actions of this service are surprising and difficult to understand, writes A. Širinskienė in the personal account of Guebbeek
– The danger to life and health of people is declared on 20 July. Then an order was issued by the LCHR chief to remove the dangerous defective drugs from the market. However, IWT took three more days to make this decision public. True, even on July 23 A low-level message appeared on IWTN's lukewarm website and no active steps were taken to publicize a more dangerous situation. After hearing the media, LWC soldiers were not even able to provide explanations the same day. The remarks came only on July 24th. It is disappointing, but it seems that the weekend and the summer are more important for the LWC military than for the health of the Lithuanian people and the main responsibility of the inland navigation is to ensure the presence medicines on the Lithuanian market. "
In Širinskienė refers to the pbadage of Article 68 of the Pharmacology Act:" The drug management system that may endanger public health must ensure that the actions of the National Agency control of drugs are necessary and urgent in the exercise of its functions. "
<...>
" If a risk to public health is raised by residents, the National Control Agency drugs must publicly announce and initiate withdrawal of the drug from the population within 24 hours. Publications must have sufficient information on alleged quality defects or alleged forgery and badociated risks. "
" I would like to make the decision of the Ministry of Health to evaluate the decisions of its subsidiary and carry out an official inspection. all our health would not happen again in the future ", – wrote the Sejm feisbuke.
Gintautas Barcys
"In recent days, the language of packages of morphine withdrawn from the market was beaten by the meeting, during which IGT chief Gintautas Barcys was summoned. that the manufacturer has packaged in atropine packs. This situation has already been discussed with the head of the National Drug Inspection Service, who badured us that improperly packaged medicines did not reach patients and were removed from the market in a timely manner. However, I think that in such a situation, these actions were not enough, "said Minister of Health Aurelius Veryga
Aurelius Veryga
] – It's a great pleasure that this time all ends well .. However, such situations are very worrying because it is obvious that the service is ineffective to communicate with people, spread messages late, This should not be the case, one of the priorities of the service is to provide the public with timely and adequate information on the threats and to prevent them. "
The Minister explained that it would be explained later why this information was submitted late and how the service was prepared to react in the future.
