Question 11126 — pharmacy and medications

Summary

Mr. Jean-Marie Fiévet alerts the Minister of Solidarity and Health about access to medicines in rural pharmacies. Since equal access for our fellow citizens to medicines is an essential objective of our health system, the MP was questioned about the economic difficulties experienced by companies supplying pharmaceutical distribution. Ensuring the supply of French pharmacies within a maximum period of 24 hours after each order, the referencing of at least 9 out of 10 drugs and the management of their stocks, these structures are experiencing remuneration difficulties from the State. So pharmacies in rural areas suffer as a result of this lack. This does not allow us to continue to meet the needs of patients and contributes to the phenomenon of medical desertification. However, these rural pharmacies often primary health service office, therefore providing a leading role within the territories. The unavailability of medicines in rural pharmacies can lead patients to favor pharmacies in larger cities, he asks for the measures planned to address pharmaceutical deserts in order to respond to this economic challenge and equal access for all citizens to care and medicines.
