: Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad said his ministry is set to award additional pharmaceutical procurement contracts early next year to ensure a steady supply of medication in the country, particularly human insulin.
Dzulkefly also gave assurances that Malaysia has never experienced a complete shortage of human insulin, even during the August disruption. “Although there isn’t any case where it’s proven that patients went home without supply, this situation requires swift measures to ensure supply remains adequate. Initial steps include transferring supplies between nearby clinics.
“With this measure, we hope to avoid a similar situation and to ensure people’s health is maintained without the risk of lack of supply,” he said.
