Resumen
Descripción
This document presents the major issues
that were discussed in the process of working towards the
development of a new medicines policy in Saudi Arabia,
examining current national practice in light of
international practices and experiences. The document is
designed to foster discussion and help inform the
development of a new national medicine policy. A detailed
accounting of the evidence informing policy choices to be
highlighted in an updated medicine policy are presented in
Part I of this discussion paper; a proposed new National
Medicine Policy itself is presented in Part ll. A new
Medicine policy, once finalized and approved, will need to
be implemented in a highly dynamic environment and must
therefore allow for flexibility. It will need to be followed
by the implementation of regulations, closely monitored, and
adapted as necessary over time.
