National pharmacy network officially launched
A national portal of pharmacies throughout Vietnam was officially launched on August 24, in a bid to inhibit the sale of low quality drugs on the market and keep prices in check.
With the portal, which currently comprises nearly 4,200 stores out of 62,000 across Vietnam, users can easily look up the use, price and origins of available drugs, as well as receive up-to-date warnings from health authorities about medicines of questionable quality.
