🔗 Mental Health in Egypt: Unmet Need, Priorities and Possible Solutions

-

Author: Michael Elnemais Fawzy

Mental health services in Egypt are mainly provided by hospitals with insufficient attention given to integrating mental health into primary care. The majority of the available resources are allocated to a few large centralized psychiatric hospitals. The Institute of Medicine (2001) defines quality clinical care as care that is equitable, timely, safe, efficient, effective and patient-centered. This article describes a three-pronged strategic approach for enhancing mental health services through policies designed to improve quality and equity.

🔗 Bupropion and varenicline added to WHO list of essential medicine

-

On 1 October 2021, the WHO announced the updated the Model List. Prior to this update, only nicotine replacement therapy was listed as an essential medicine for people who wish to stop using tobacco. Nicotine replacement therapy works by supplying nicotine in an alternative form, such as chewing gum or patches for a limited period, which helps reduce the nicotine withdrawal symptoms.

After the update, two new medicines have now been added, indicating a powerful shift in the fight against the tobacco epidemic. Bupropion and varenicline are medicines which work in a different way from nicotine replacement. The new medicines reduce cravings for nicotine without supplying a nicotine substitute, thereby supporting people in quitting tobacco use and reducing nicotine dependence.
