Algeria Releases First Essential Medicine List
The article focused on Algeria's strategy to strengthen its pharmaceutical sector and national pharmaceutical industry through the adoption of the first national list of essential medicines, which includes 424 therapeutic substances and 1,066 pharmaceutical products. The goal is to establish national priorities and achieve pharmaceutical sovereignty. The report also noted that the country's pharmaceutical exports amounted to $52 million in 2025, with efforts underway to expand its presence in international markets, particularly in Africa, where the country owns 30% of the pharmaceutical factories on the continent. Developing domestic production, including establishing factories for raw material manufacturing, aims to reduce reliance on imports and boost export capabilities, with an emphasis on exporting medicines to more than 11 African countries.
