Question 42831 — pharmacy and medications

Summary

Mrs. Muriel Roques-Etienne draws the attention of the Minister of Solidarity and Health to the increasing disappearance of pharmacy licenses in isolated territories. Due to the loss of attractiveness and the geographical location of these rural areas, many pharmacies can no longer find buyers. At a time when the Government intends to strengthen the prerogatives of pharmacists, many territories are nevertheless seeing increase the number of cessations of activities of pharmacies in their communities. However, maintaining a pharmacy in a small town today constitutes the last defense against a total medical desert. There are many relevant avenues for reflection that would make it possible to compensate for this lack of service in these municipalities where access to care is already weakened. The establishment of a “secondary pharmacy” status, as existed in the past, could be an effective way to encourage settlement in under-resourced areas. In any case, this situation demonstrates a necessary adaptation of the conditions of transfer, creation or even sale of pharmacy pharmacies in certain areas of the national territory. Also, she wishes to know the measures that he intends to implement to fight sustainably against the disappearance of this essential service to the populations. most isolated localities.
