Question 14738 — pharmacy and medications

Summary

Mr. Éric Michoux alerts the Minister of Health, Families, Autonomy and Disabled People about the out of stock of Alepsal for several weeks. The ANSM had announced tensions in the supply of this drug (all dosages combined). Today, it is clear that there is a real shortage of stock in certain departments and sometimes even in entire regions. This situation is of particular concern for epileptic patients who require this medication on a daily basis. Faced with a real shortage, pharmacists are forced to offer other drugs (such as Gardenal) but which do not contain the same molecules. This change in molecule worries patients, who are forced to extend their journeys to obtain replacement treatment. They denounce the lack of information and visibility on the current situation. More generally, this shortage raises questions both about medical deserts and about the Government's means to deal with stock shortages of medicines or vital molecules for patients. Also, he would like to know what the Government intends to do to communicate with patients, ensure rapid resupply of Alepsal and sustainably combat shortages. of medicines.
