Essential Medicines List for East Timor Complete List
2nd Issue
August 2004
Ministerio da Saude, Republica Democratica de Timor Leste (RDTL) With introductory notes by HE Dr. Rui Maria de Araujo, Minister of Health,
The original list was prepared in 2001 with the staff of the Ministry of Health and written by: Prof. Graham Dukes Euro Health Group Advisor, and Ms Heather Moore Pharmacist A first issue was prepared in August 2003. This list was revised on the 22nd and23rd of July 2004 in 2 meetings in the National Hospital and the Ministry of Health and edited by Mr. Fabian Kong, Pharmacy Advisor Ministry of Health, Dr. Ruediger Kilian, Pharmacy Advisor SAMES and Gerrit Weeda Management Advisor AMSS, East Timor The new EML 2004 was used to revise the SAMES catalogue which is issued together with the Essential Medicines List. Special thanks go to the Medical Consultative Council of the Guido Valadares National Hospital, and the district staff that came to discuss the list on the 23rd of July and the many other contributors who spent their (often free) time to revise this list. The EML is the precursor for the revised Standard Treatment Guidelines.
Foreword by the Minister of Health, Introduction to the Essential Medicines List for East Timor (August 2004) After using the Essential Medicines List (2003) for one year, this revision is based on the practical experience gained until now. The technical revision of the list was discussed on the 22nd of July 2004 with the Medical Consultative Council from the National Hospital and the vertical programs operating in East Timor, (TB / IMCI /Nurses training program / EPI / UNFPA / Mental Health). The next day this revision was discussed with the staff of all medical districts in East Timor. Substantial guidance from the WHO country office was received. Again the list was tested on the generic availability of the medicines to keep the prices as low as possible to fit the national budget. System of the East Timor Essential Medicine List. Again the format of the WHO Model List was adopted. All medicines are entered by their therapeutic group and then listed alphabetically. For each medicine all required formulations are listed, e.g. injection, oral suspension, tablets, etc. in the available strength. Added is the level on which each single formulation may be used, these are: Level 1 Health Post, and all higher levels, Level 2 CHC without beds and generally no doctor in place, and all higher levels, Level 3-4 CHC with beds and doctor in charge, and higher levels, Level H Referral (Dili National. Baucau, Maliana, Oecussi and Suai) Hospitals, Level Sp For Specialist use ONLY by specialist in his special field of competence. Leveling is important as it the base of the referral system. The “higher” units should not receive patients that have already been given all the medicines mentioned in the list (whether administered rightly or wrong), or medicines that should be given only after certain investigations have been completed (laboratory, X-ray etc.). Each level presumes a certain competence and staff should not exceed their level, even when in certain cases an individual would have the training and ability to prescribe that medicine. Special arrangements for the distribution and storing of these medicines
Attention!
1 You will notice an entry E on level 1 and 2 This means “EMERGENCY tray. • Under the guidance of the Nurse Training Program and the IMCI a great number of
nurses in level 2 and 3 are now able to start severely ill patients immediately on a treatment while referring them to a higher level 3-4 or H.
• The medicines may NOT be used for general treatment at the level 1 or 2, but are only reserved for these cases of emergency.
Where the nurses are sufficiently trained they will receive small quantities of E-Medicines for the above purposes from the district, they will not be available to Health posts or CHC’s where the nurse has not been trained yet. 2 Medicines on the supplementary list for Specialists.
The special competence of our specialists warrants that a number of specialist medicines are availed to them. Former arrangements however went wrong since other staff (non-specialist) would get hold of these medicines and use them freely, thus destroying the whole principle of referral and using expensive medicines, where cheap ones could have been used. The Specialists are responsible for timely ordering of sufficient stocks for their use from the SAMES through their Hospital Pharmacy. A half year’s supply as indicated on the special order form is advised. These medicines will be bought by the SAMES and distributed straight to the specialists concerned, who will be in charge of their keeping and their wise use. Again, staff needs to abide to the presumed level of competence and refer patients to the higher level instead of trying to get hold of the medicines that are meant to be at higher level Cost considerations The list has been prepared with the interest of patients and the costs of treatment in mind. Please remember at all times that only in obvious cases no injections or suspensions should be given when the patient can take the tablet or capsule form. • Injections are generally 3 to 5 times more expensive per treatment than tablets and
capsules, • Suspensions are generally 5 to 7 times more expensive. Do not give in to patient pressure too easily. Rational Drug Use Prescriptions that have more than 2 or 3 lines of medicines are suspect, sometimes good advice only to a patient is the best medicine. Remember that the first advice given to all medical staff is “do no harm”. If you are not able to diagnose a patient’s problem because you do not have the right facilities available (laboratory etc.) refer the patient instead of giving 8 to 10 medicines in the hope that one or two may work. Be careful in the use of antibiotics. All over the world resistance builds up against the most effective and cheap antibiotics because of over- or wrong use. When you need to give remember to advice the patient to take the full course, as partially taking is an important reason for the resistance. We wish you success with the use of this new essential medicines list for East Timor. Dr. Rui Maria de Araujo, Minister of Health.
Kata Pengantar dari Menteri Kesehatan, Pengantar untuk Daftar Obat-obatan Esensial Timor Leste (revisi Juli 2003) Daftar obat-obatan esensial ini berdasarkan daftar obat-obatan esensial yang asli yang disiapkan untuk Timor Leste pada tahun 1999 dan direvisi sesuai dengan Model Daftar WHO terbaru (April 2003) untuk obat-obatan esensial. Sejauh masih mungkin formulasi-formulasi dan informasi-informasi yang terdaftar di sini diadopsi. Oleh karena itu daftar ini sangat mirip dengan daftar dari negara lain yang mengadopsi kebijakan obat-obatan esensial. Sebagai tambahan untuk revisi teknis, daftar ini didiskusikan bersama dengan Badan Konsultatif Medis dari Rumah Sakit Nasional dan semua program vertical yang sedang beroperasi di Timor Leste., (TBC/IMCI/program pelatihan perawat-perawat/ EPI / UNFPA / Kesehatan Mental). Bimbingan substansial dari kantor WHO di negara ini pun diterima. Akhirnya daftar ini diuji berdasarkan ketersediaan generik dari obat-obatan untuk menentukan harga obat-obatan serendah mungkin agar sesuai dengan budget / dana nasional. System dari Daftar Obat-obatan Esensial Di sini juga format Model Daftar WHO disesuaikan. Obat-obatan ini dimasukkan berdasarkan kelompok terapeutik dan tersusun secara alfabetis. Untuk setiap obat, semua formulasi yang tersedia dimasukkan dalam daftar, seperti injeksi, oral suspension, tablet dengan dosis yang tersedia. Ditambahkan juga dengan level-level dimana setiap formulasi tunggal itu boleh digunakan., Level-level itu adalah: Level 1 Health Post, dan semua level yang lebih tinggi Level 2 CHC tanpa tempat tidur dan dokter, dan semua level yang lebih tinggi. Level 3-4 CHC dengan tempat tidur dan dokter, dan semua level yang lebih tinggi Level H Rumah Sakit referral (Nasional Dili, Baucau, Maliana, Oecusse dan Suai) Level Sp Hanya digunakan oleh Spesialis dalam bidang kompetensinya Penentuan level sangat penting karena ini adalah dasar untuk system rujukan, unit-unit yang lebih tinggi tidak boleh menerima pasien yang sudah menerima semua obat yang tertulis dalam daftar (entah diberikan dengan benar atau tidak), atau obat-obatan yang harus diberikan hanya setelah dilakukannya diagnosis tertentu (laboratorium, X-Ray dll.). Setiap level ditetapkan berdasarkan kompetensi tertentu dan staff tidak boleh menulis resep melebihi levelnya, bahkan ketika dalam kasus tertentu seperti seorang individu sudah melakukan pelatihan dan punya kemampuan untuk menulis resep obat tersebut. Persiapan khusus untuk distribusi dan penyimpanan obat-obatan tersebut dalam gudang Perhatian! 1. Anda akan melihat sebuah entry E pada level 1 dan 2 Ini berarti “EMERGENSI”. Di bawah bimbingan Program Pelatihan Perawat dan IMCI, banyak perawat level 2 dan 3 yang sekarang mulai langsung menangani pasien dengan penyakit berat dalam pengobatan sambil merujuk ke level 3-4 atau H. Obat-obatan itu TIDAK boleh digunakan untuk pengobatan umum pada level 1 atau 2, tetapi hanya sebagai cadangan untuk kasus-kasus emergensi. Di tempat mana ada perawat yang mendapat pelatihan cukup, mereka akan menerima obat-obatan E dalam jumlah yang sedikit untuk tujuan seperti tersebut di atas dari distrik, obat-obatan itu tidak akan tersedia untuk Health Post atau CHC di mana para perawat belum mendapat pelatihan.
2 Obat-obatan dalam daftar tambahan untuk para Spesialis Kompetensi khusus dari para spesialist kita mengatakan bahwa ada sejumlah obat-obatan untuk spesialist yang tersedia bagi mereka. Penyediaan yang dulu, berjalan tidak benar sejak staff yang lain (bukan spesialist) mulai menyimpan obat-obatan itu dan menggunakannya dengan bebas, yang kemudian merusak seluruh prinsip dari rujukan dan menggunakan obat-obatan yang mahal, dimana yang murah sudah habis terpakai. Oleh karena itu obat-obatan itu akan dibeli oleh AMSS dan didistribusikan langsung ke Spesialist bersangkutan, yang akan bertanggung jawab akan pergudangan mereka dan penggunaannya yang bijaksana dan kemudian menginformasikan kepada AMSS secara reguler dan tepat waktu ketika mereka membutuhkan lagi. (dan berapa jumlah yang diinginkan).
Sekali lagi, staff perlu memperhatikan level kompetensi yang sudah ditentukan dan merujuk pasien ke level yang lebih tinggi daripada mencoba mengikatkan diri dengan obat-obatan yang dimaksudkan untuk level yang lebih tinggi.
Pertimbangan Biaya Daftar ini sudah dipersiapkan sesuai dengan kebutuhan pasien dan perkiraan biaya pengobatan.
Tolong diingat sepanjang waktu bahwa tidak boleh memberikan injeksi atau suspension ketika pasien dapat diberi resep dengan tablet atau kapsul.
• Harga injeksi pada umumnya 3 sampai 5 kali lebih mahal dalam setiap pengobatan daripada tablet dan kapsul
• Suspension umumnya 4 hingga 7 kali lebih mahal. Jangan memberikan pasien tekanan dengan begitu mudahnya. Penggunaan Rasional Obat-obatan Penulisan resep yang terdiri dari 2 atau 3 baris obat-obatan adalah mencurigakan, kadang-kadang hanya dengan nasehat yang baik kepada seorang pasien adalah obat yang terbaik. Ingatlah bahwa nasehat pertama yang diberikan kepada semua staff medis adalah “jangan melakukan yang membahayakan”. Jika Anda tidak mampu melakukan diagnosis terhadap penyakit seorang pasien karena Anda tidak memiliki fasilitas yang benar (laboratorium dll.), rujuklah pasien itu daripada memberikan 8 hingga 10 obat dengan harapan satu atau dua dari obat itu dapat menyembuhkan. Hati-hatilah dengan penggunaan antibiotik. Di seluruh dunia kasus resisten terhadap obat-obatan yang sangat efektif dan murah, disebabkan karena penggunaan yang salah dan melebihi dosis. Ketika Anda mengingatkan pasien untuk meminum setengah dari obat-obatan yang ada adalah satu alasan penting untuk resisten. Semoga berhasil dengan penggunaan daftar obat-obatan esensial baru untuk Timor Leste. Dr. Rui Maria de Araujo, Menteri Kesehatan.

6.4.2 Antiretrovirals
Adequate resources and specialist oversight are a pre-requisite for the introduction of this class of drugs. The antiretroviral drugs do not cure the HIV infection, they only temporarily suppress viral replication and improve
symptoms. They have various adverse effects and patients receiving these drugs require careful monitoring by adequately trained health professionals. For these reasons, continued rigorous promotion of measures to prevent new
infections is essential and the need for this has not been diminished in any way by the addition of antiretroviral drugs to the Model List. Adequate resources and trained health professionals are a prerequisite for the introduction of
this class of drugs. Effective therapy requires commencement of three or four drugs simultaneously, and alternative regimens are necessary to meet specific requirements at start-up, to substitute for first-line regimens in the case of
toxicity, or to replace failing regimens. .
The Committee strongly recommends the use of three- or four-drug combinations as specifically recommended in the WHO treatment guidelines. The use of fixed dose preparations for these combinations is also recommended,
with assured pharmaceutical quality and interchangeability with the single products as approved by the relevant drug regulatory authority.
THESE DRUG REQUIRE MINISTRY APPROVAL FOR EVERY OCCASION OF USE WITH TECHNICAL ADVICE FROM THE NATIONAL PROGRAM
