Counterfeit drugs sold in Lebanon: The saga continues

Conterfeit drugs are being sold in Lebanon:The companies accused of having produced the drugs had forged the signature of the Beirut Arab University

تستمر فضيحة الدواء اللبناني المزوّر في التفاعل، خصوصًا بعد توسع التحقيقات وكشفها اليوم عن تورط 15 شركة مستوردة، وليس فقط أربع شركات كما قيل سابقًا. ويتساءل اللبنانيون من يحميهم من سياسيين فسدوا ودولة عجزت؟

Counterfeit drugs sold in Lebanon: The saga continues

2 comments:

Do you think that physicians can be taught to be empathetic?

Do you think having an Advance Directive (where a patient states his/her wishes while he/she is capacitated and competent) will improve the care of patients in critical care settings?

Will saying " I am sorry" (in the right way, etc) prevent a malpractice lawsuit?

Do you think Nurses in the Arab World are undervalued?

Should fetuses with severe physical abnormalities incompatible with life be aborted?

Visitors

Are you aware of the Lebanese Patients Rights and Informed Consent Law?

Do you think Arab Countries should have one common Code of Medical Ethics?
