 قراءة في النظام الاميريكي لصرف الدواء
Generics Substitution


مصطلح Generics Substitution هو مصطلح عالمي يعني السماح للصيدلي بصرف الدواء المثيل دون الرجوع إلي الطبيب أو المريض

والسبب المباشر في إعطاء هذه الصلاحية للصيدلي  هو ان هذا الإجراء يحقق توفير المال للمريض الأمريكي ويحقق مرونة في مزاولة مهنة الصيدلة للصيدلي الأمريكي

وتتفاوت حدود هذا الإجراء من ولاية إلي أخري وتتسع مساحة حرية الصيدلي من مكان لأخر في الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية  حيث تبدأ من إعطاء كامل الحرية للصيدلي بصرف الدواء المثيل في معظم الولايات  تحت أي ظرف من الظروف إلي وضع بعض الحدود  في ولايات أخري
ومن أمثلة الحدود الموضوعة في بعض الولايات الأمريكية (الاستثناءات) كالأتي
1-يمكن للطبيب أن يطلب من الصيدلي صرف دواء الشركة الأم
Brand Drugs أما ما عدا هذا فلا يحق للطبيب رفض مستحضر أي شركة طالما أن الدواء المطلوب ليس من الشركة الأم
2-تستثني قوانين بعض الولايات الأدوية ذات
narrow therapeutic range  مثل مادة الديجوكسين ومادة المورفين

3-بعض الأدوية التي تستخدم عن طريق الاستنشاق بطريقة Metered Dose  حيث تختلف قياسات كل جهاز عن آخر عند استخدامه
4-أدوية الصرع  وهذا الاستثناء غير شائع في معظم الولايات إلا انه موجود في بعضها وتم ذكره من قبيل الأمانة العلمية
5- بعض الولايات تلزم الصيدلي بالتبديل الجبري للدواء إذا كان الطبيب قد كتبه باسم تجاري وله مثائل أرخص

ويسمح للصيدلي بالخروج عن هذه الاستثناءات وصرف الأدوية المثيلة إذا طلب منه المريض أن يعطيه الدواء ذو السعر الأقل وان دل هذا علي شيء فهو يدل علي انعدام قيمة هذه الاستثناءات  وإمكانية الاستغناء عنها إذا اقتضت الحاجة لذلك

والسؤال هنا لماذا تختلف الولايات في أنظمتها لصرف الدواء؟
القوانين توضع لعلاج مشاكل واقعة  وبناءا علي اختلاف نوعية المشاكل من ولاية لأخرى تختلف النظم والقوانين فيها  ونحن في مصر يجب أن نتخذ من اختلاق قوانين صرف الدواء في الولايات الأمريكية  مدخلا لصناعة نظام خاص بمصر يساعد علي حل مشاكلها الدوائية كما تقوم كل دولة بل كل ولاية بوضع النظام الذي يخدم مصالحها ويساهم في الحد من مشاكلها

ملحوظة مهمة جدا
==========
مصطلح (الدواء بالاسم العلمي) هو وسيلة لتحقيق مصطلح متعارف عليه دوليا وهو (
Generics Substitution) بمعني ان وسيلتنا لتحقيق مبدأ (Generics Substitution) هو أن نتخلى عن الاسم التجاري سواء في الروشته أو علي غلاف الدواء أو كلاهما معا
وإذا كانت بعض الدول لا تلزم الشركات أو الأطباء بالاسم العلمي فهذا لان مبدأ (
Generics Substitution) يتم تحقيقه بدون اللجوء إلي ضرورة  استخدام الاسم العلمي حيث أن ثقافة المريض والطبيب تسمح هناك بذلك
أما في مصر ومع سنوات من قدسية الاسم التجاري لدي المريض والطبيب فان مبدأ (
Generics Substitution) لا يمكن ابدأ تحقيقه إلا إذا تخلينا ولو لفترة انتقاليه عن الاسم التجاري وذلك بكتابة الدواء بالاسم العلمي
وكما ذكرنا فان لكل دولة وكل ولاية نظامها الخاص في تحقيق مبدأ (
Generics Substitution)فإننا يحق لنا أن نخلق ما يناسب ثقافتنا ويضمن تحقيق مبدأ (Generics Substitution)
