Regjeringen utvider analysen av legemiddelmarkedet

Norsk Bokmål

Regjeringen har besluttet å utvide en granskning av det internasjonale legemiddelmarkedet etter rapporter om mangel på østrogenpreparater.

Flere kvinner behandles for overgangsplager, men tilgangen til østrogenmedisiner er til tider mangelfull. Tandvårds- och läkemedelsförmånsverket (TLV) skal på oppdrag fra regjeringen undersøke hvordan Sveriges betalingsvilje påvirker pasienters tilgang til nye behandlingsformer. Sosialminister Jakob Forssmed skriver i et debattinnlegg at regjeringen analyserer hvordan endringer i omverdenen påvirker tilgangen til legemidler i Sverige. Svenske priser på nye legemidler ligger 18 prosent under det europeiske gjennomsnittet. Organisasjonen LIF ønsker beslutningen velkommen. Administrerende direktør Sofia Wallström sier at kostnadseffektivitet er viktig, men at lave priser aldri kan være et mål i seg selv.
