A survey carried out by the Sunday Mail on Wednesday indicated that there are some pharmacies selling prescription drugs in US dollars. ---------- *HOT DEALS:* *itel A70 - (128GB, 3GB RAM) $89,* *itel A70 - (256GB, 4GB RAM) $99* *itel P40 (128GB, 4GB), (6000mAh) $99* *itel P40 (64GB, 4G), (6000mAh) $93* *LATEST: itel S24 (128) $124; S24 (256GB) $159* Cash on Delivery in Harare & Bulawayo.

However, the Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Health and Child Care, Dr Agnes Mahomva, dismissed these claims. She asserted that drugs are readily available in abundance at NatPharm. She said: > Drugs are locally available at Nat Pharm and they should be available, and affordable, in local currency in both the public and private pharmacies. > The Government outlawed the use of multiple currencies and I think it is everyone’s responsibility to abide by these laws. Some of the drugs being sold in foreign currency include Rocephin and Metronidazole. Those which are being sold in local currencies re pegging their prices at a higher exchange rate than the prevailing interbank rate, at times as high 1:20 according to The Sunday Mail. *More: Sunday Mail* _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
