Validolis – ne vaistas, o m aisto papildas
2009-07-21 Valstybinė visuomenės sveikatos priežiūros tarnyba prie Sveikatos apsaugos ministerijos (VVSPT) informuoja, kad nuo š. m. liepos 1 dienos validoliu prekiaujama kaip maisto papildu. VVSPT atkreipia dėmesį į tai, kad maisto papildas yra ne vaistas, o maisto produktas, neturintis gydomojo poveikio ir nevartotinas jokioms ligoms gydyti. Lietuvoje validolis nebepriskiriamas vaistams nuo 2003 m. Valstybinė vaistų kontrolės tarnyba atsisakė jį registruoti kaip vaistą, nes nėra įrodyta, kad jis padėtų sergant kokia nors liga. 2004-aisiais validolis buvo įtrauktas į medicininės paskirties produktų sąrašą, kuris š. m. liepos 1 dieną panaikintas. Ilgą laiką validolis vartotas esant širdies veiklos sutrikimams.

prazosinum, norepinephrinum, digoxinum inj., verapamilum inj.
ciclosporinum i/v

Different additional measures have to be introduced to overcome the shortages putting with an additional burden to all stakeholders:
– Patient named supply chains – Special hospital supply arrangements – Prioritizations in MA procedures, including the for variations
