摘要
Essential medicines are those that satisfy the “priority health care needs” of the population. Essential Medicines are selected based on efficacy and safety and comparative cost-effectiveness with due regards to public health relevance. The essential medicine list (EML) was created with the intention of ensuring that certain medications are accessible in sufficient quantities, in the proper dosage forms and strengths, and with guaranteed quality. For a country like India, with limited resources this is obviously important. In this article, we analyze the recently approved National list of essential medicine (NLEM) 2022 of India NLEM 2022 has quite significant changes as compared with NLEM 2015. The creation of NLEM 2022 followed a process which is like that adopted for NLEM 2015 includes numerous rounds of meetings with subject matter experts, various stakeholders, including non-governmental organizations (NGOs), patient groups, civil societies, the pharmaceutical industry, manufacturing associations, concerned government departments and organizations. The NLEM 2022 has been modified with new sections and subsections being added, thus helping in better classification of therapeutic classes of drugs.
