And finally the <em>traceability<\/em> the distribution of medicines not used or eliminated from the circuit which would need specific initiatives.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;An important act to make drug spending more efficient, both in hospitals and in families, in the wake of the awareness campaign promoted by the ecologist magazine <em>People for Planet<\/em>\u00a0and the main international studies and experiences. The administration of bulk medicines in pharmacies is now a reality in countries such as Great Britain, Germany, the United States and Canada and is being studied by the French and Swiss governments, which have decided to start a trial&quot;, now it&#039;s time for a change too in our country\u201d, explain the regional councilors Paolo Sarti and Tommaso Fattori. \u201cIn fact, there are too many medicines, mostly paid for by the national health service, which end up wasted, often in unopened and expired packages, and which then become an enormous amount of waste to be disposed of, over 1500 tons a year according to the &#039;Report Urban Waste 2015&#039; of Ispra. It is therefore necessary to promote a fruitful collaboration between doctors, pharmacists and manufacturing companies to give priority to the sale of bulk medicines and to make available packages of medicines calibrated to therapeutic needs, providing for the introduction of personalized packages and unit doses\u201d. \u201cInformation campaigns and health education on the prudent and appropriate use of medicines are also needed, as well as initiatives to increase <em>traceability<\/em> on the distribution and for the production and distribution of medicines in single-dose form in hospitals&quot;. &quot;Finally, the motion calls for full implementation of law 166 of 2016 to allow the donation of unused medicines to non-profit organizations for social purposes and that these provisions also be extended to veterinary drugs&quot;, conclude Sarti and Fattori.<\/p>\n<p>At the time of the explanation of vote <strong>Serena Spinelli <\/strong>(Art.1\/Mdp) e <strong>Andrew Quartini <\/strong>(M5s) have announced support for the text.
