In the COVID hysteria, antibiotics and flu medications are gone

Only in Silistra there is everything

It is almost impossible to buy drugs used for the treatment of COVID-19 in pharmacies in Bulgaria, a “24-hour” inspection showed.

The deficiency is due to both anticoagulant drugs such as fraxiparin and corticosteroids. Antibiotics are also not prescribed for home treatment of COVID-19.

The main antibiotic azax is almost impossible to buy even in Sofia, the “24-hour” inspection showed. All antibiotics with the active ingredient azithromycin were bought, pharmacists said. They are also absent in Veliko Tarnovo, Smolyan, Burgas, Blagoevgrad, Kardzhali, Razgrad.

“One of the reasons for the high demand, especially after the strong growth of infected in our country, is that the treatment with COVID is very long. Patients are first treated at home, then possibly in a hospital, and when they are discharged, they continue to be treated, “Nikolay Kostov, president of the Association of Pharmacy Owners, told 24 Chassa.

Another reason is that massive people are

antibiotic

or drink it

preventively,

say pharmacists.

“If healthy people use azithromycin, it will happen that in a year we will all be resistant and no bacteria can be killed by it,” explained the chief pharmacist in Blagoevgrad Konstantin Kachulev.

There is also a shortage of anticoagulants such as fraxiparin in pharmacies. The drug has not been available in pharmacies in Veliko Tarnovo for three weeks. It is also missing in Smolyan and Ploviiv, and it has been difficult to find it in Burgas for 2 months. It is not in the warehouses either.

In addition to COVID, fraxiparine is taken by pregnant women with increased blood clotting and are at risk of not being present.

Antistenocardin remains one of the most sought-after drugs in coronavirus psychosis in Tarnovo and Smolyan, but in small amounts. However, the immunoprotective aviron is missing. There is no isorex.

zinc, selenium,

paracetamol and homeopathic remedies against infections.

However, in Burgas there is no longer even dexamethasone, and it is increasingly difficult to find antistenocardin. Deliveries of antibiotics with azithromycin are expected, said the director of the Regional Pharmaceutical Union, Lyubima Burgazlieva.

Pharmacists in Plovdiv are shocked by the hysteria with which pharmacies are being emptied.

Schemes of various hospitals for the treatment of the coronavirus have been released. Y

The people went crazy

However, no one explains how these combinations can be used, at what stage of infection and in what clinic of the patient. People just bought the drugs, “said Dimitria Staykova, director of the city’s pharmaceutical union.

“The amazing thing is that they got prescriptions and looted the antibiotics azax, azithromycin and all the derivatives. They buy more than they need for a patient. At this point, even if patients have prescriptions, there is nothing to give them. “I received only three packets of azithromycin yesterday, and 10 came with prescriptions,” he added.

His colleagues say that the antibiotics of the second group, which are included in the scheme for the treatment of coronavirus infection – tavanic, levox and levofloxacin, have already been purchased.

The shortage of medicines in Blagoevgrad is explained by the large number of infected people and the fact that doctors prescribe the same medicines to all. Also, living in Blagoevgrad, Sandanski and Petrich

Greeks too

to buy

medicines,

to send them to relatives in Greece.

“We do not allow the purchase of large quantities, maximum 2-3 packages. I cannot say that there is a massive purchase of medicines by the Greeks,” said a pharmacist at a site in the center of Blagoevgrad.

There is no way that Greeks can go shopping in our country, because their country is under a total blockade.

“I talk to my colleagues in the district every day. Until now no one has told me about the massive purchase of drugs by the Greeks. Today I spoke with about 20 pharmacies in Sandanski, Petrich, Gotse Delchev. There is no such thing. Rather. , Bulgarians often look for and order medicines in Greece, but it is difficult to sell them there without a prescription, ”said Konstantin Kachulev of the Blagoevgrad pharmaceutical board.

Unlike most places in the country in Silistra, there is no shortage of much sought after drugs. Only the flu shots were missing. There were no rapid tests.

However, pharmacists report that more and more patients are looking to buy drugs that usually need a prescription, but do not have them because the jeep consulted them on the phone and prescribed their treatment.
