The Municipality of Concordia, through the Health Secretariat, will donate antibiotics to health centers in surrounding areas. This arises from a meeting held by the mayor Francisco Azcué and the Secretary of Health Diego Sauré with the person in charge of Laboratorios Sant Gall Friburg QCI SRL, Franco Cozimano.
These are nine pallets of medication, which include cephalexin, amoxicillin, and amoxiclavulanic acid.
In this regard, the Secretary of Health Diego Sauré commented that they have already begun part of the delivery at the Constitución Health Center. “The idea is to move forward in peripheral centers of our department to continue delivering antibiotics that will be useful for that population, and we cannot afford the luxury of keeping them stored in warehouses without putting them to use, only for them to expire over time,” he indicated.
Subsequently, the municipal official thanked the mayor Francisco Azcué for his support and decision, stating that “it is important to help in something as substantial as health, to obtain these antibiotics, which in monetary terms have a value of 160 million pesos. This will lower our health budget; in other words, it will save us money and, on top of that, we can help other providers or health centers in our department,” highlighted Sauré.
In that sense, it was emphasized that with the donation of the antibiotics, the municipality will not be affected in the annual provision of medications used in peripheral health centers and Primary Health Care Centers.
