Most Essential Antibiotic Drugs In The Local Market Have Been Increased Between 200-300% -Government Doctors

Most of the essential Antibiotic Drugs in the local market have been increased between 200 -300% during last Six Months according to the Government Hospital Doctors.

Not Registering new imported drugs to Sri Lanka by the newly Formed Independent Drug Regulatory Authority and the rising value of the US Dollar against Sri Lankan Rupee   are the main causes behind this huge increase of the prices of Drugs Doctors have said.

Due to this situation patients with economic difficulties have been experiencing  enormous difficulties when purchasing these drugs from the  Private Sector health sources said.
